Yup, I made the jump.
So far, all is not good, but it’s kinda OK.
Been having trouble with sound, but after the fix (the old fix for 701 had to be made), and after I cranked up Front-volume etc, it seems ok.
Wifi is also not super good. There’s a fix in the wiki, but I havent bothered yet. Maybe Wifi is ok after all. I don’t know.
Most annoying thing is that Firefox takes for ever to start up! It just waits? Nothing happens, and after a long time, it’s up. Weird.
Also there’s some weird things going on with the update manager. It wants to do partial upgrades all the time.
Besides that? Great:)
Forgot to mention this.
Upgraded my eee to Ubuntu Eee Hardy:) I like it.
Go to the Ubuntu Eee wiki for instructions.
Will try to write a short how to for optimizing it later.
Got eee? Check out the wiki!

They finally arrived. My white pearl, and my girlfriends pink blush, eee’s 
They are beautiful. No prob whith the english keyboard (well some keys are in weird places, but that’s hot), the power adaptors came in the mail today. So now we’re on ac power too (Kudos to Ned for lending us a spare one).
What to say about the eee? It’s great small tiny sweeet 
Running the default Xandros OS still. Easy Mode. It just works. Will maybe try something else later though (yes I have been fiddling around with repositories, deb installs, gOS etc already).
Photos? Stay tuned.
More later.
