What are you planning on using it for? Most of the things that this computer can do can be easily accomplished by a much more polished device like the iPad, Galaxy Tab, or even Xoom 2. These devices all have the ability to use a keyboard case with them but are much more svelte and have better OSes than the modded one that runs on the Inspiron Duo.
TL;DR: Take your money elsewhere and get a tablet.

While having a touch screen might seem cool with Windows 7 there simply is not much to do with it. That idea increases with the Inspiron Duo since there is no stylus.
I think the best decision is to decide what you really want here. Do you want a tablet? If so go pick up an Apple iPad ($500), Samsung Galaxy Tab ($500), or an Amazon Kindle Fire ($200).
Do you really want a PC? Check out Lenovo. They have the best PCs and some great ThinkPad Edge units cheap. (Also check out their Outlet store)
If you really want the tablet PC than maybe check out a ThinkPad X61 Tablet on eBay or something that will prove to be more useful. My personal suggestion is to wait for Windows 8 if you really want this best of both worlds experience.
