Detailed review
Here are the things I liked: The size and weight are perfect for laptop use. The look and design are fantastic; it looks great with the black motif of my home entertainment system (Sony Bravia LCD tv, Xbox 360 Elite, PS3 and black case on my PC). The touchpad works great, better than many laptops I've used. The full-sized buttons are perfect for touch-typing. The volume slider is very convenient, though it sometimes takes a few swipes to get it to work.

The only thing that I didn't like was the placement of the power and sleep buttons in the upper-right and -left corners. It is way too easy to accidentally press them when just moving the keyboard around. Also I do wish it came with a full number keypad. Other than that, this device is pure gold and well worth the purchase price.
