Bought one yesterdy as a linux box, and I love it!
Anyone else got their hands on one of these babies yet?
A couple of sites I've been working on if you're interested http://www.howtogetfaster.co.uk, [url]http://www.documentaries.me.uk[url] and a new startup http://thelocalseo.co
I haven't yet but I have been wanting to get my hands on one and put it through its paces.

I've heard that due to its lack of L2 cache it tends to stall and crash, is this true? It seemed to be the major complaint of the system and one of the major reasons I wouldn't get one. Could be the revue's I read were misleading as I see no mention of it on some of the reviews.
Edit:
It would appear the lowest model has very little E2 Cache which would explain the different reviews. Looking at the data sheet it would appear that the 4 gig model would be the best bet if you were looking at buying one.

What I keep hearing over and over again is that they are fun for awhile and then the novelty wears off.

I'm somewhat undecided as to whether to get one. Although it has obvious appeal, due to its size, it doesn't offer much value for money. The Dell Vostro, is about £240 compared to £200 and gives a 60GB hard disk compared to 4GB and a DVD-writer.
But I like the idea of a Linux OS that's very well polished. Plus, it runs quite fast despite its lack of power.
@ Mountain rage.
It's runs pretty well considering, and it hasn't crashed yet.
@XKS
I removed the default OS the same day and repaced it with eeexubuntu.
Even better, I've just finshed setting up Compiz Fusion and am awestruck as to how nicely it runs.
Next mission is to clock it back up from 640 - 675mhz to the advertised 900.
