    I didn't realise tablets were so cheap!

    That second link looks very cheap. Any idea how it compares to the Asus x205...?

    Here is an example with the detachable keyboard.

    I'd seriously consider a tablet. I keep my EEE701 at my mum's in case I'm there without any other device (which is very rare) and I used it at Christmas, I was surprised at how heavy it was compared to modern lightweight kit, although when I carried it around SE Asia for 4 months in 2008/9 it didn't seem that bad.
