how about the eee-701s? they are no mo' but used to have a
70% of full size keyboard. my eee-900A had All the std
keys. do we really need the F[n] keys?
anyway, if not a tiny kybd, maybe a small one.
Another thought: isnt there a rubber keyboard that rolls up
or folds in half? IIRC, the keys do compress [about one
mm],
and with the heavy THUNK sound:: hey.
anyway/nutshell, i do like this vivaldi tablet. =if= it had
a thunkable and real keybd.
gary
PS critical note. am i mis-remembering, or did someone say
that eee//ASUS was going to make a *quality* ten inch
netbook? my VBC WOUld work seriously well on that.
anybody??
