frankly i think you can get a fuller-featured notebook for that price, i'd look for a bigger drive, more FW ports.. built-in WirelessG , etc... but if a tablet PC is what you're after - then it looks pretty nice.
a tablet might be really cool for taping purposes - i know chris rabold uses one to calibrate WSP's FOH system...
i've never been a big fan of acer, though..... lots of cut corners in their products from my experience..
