I also got one and agree!

The internal flash is 4 of which only 1.3g is left over from
the xandros system and a recovery partition.

I bought a 4gb SDHC card for the slot; that gives me plenty of
disk space.   The card was a lexar from Dick Smith which comes
with a usb card reader - useful if you want to attach it
to another machine.

Now I just have to get a C compiler and other bits and pieces
on to it.  I won't go ubuntu (yet).  It's quite good as it
is.

There are a few revisions of these things out already; 7a,
7b, 7c.  I don't know what the difference is but apparently
some or all of the earlier ones webcam didn't / wasn't 
enabled to work out of the box.

My rev 7c works fine.
