Has anyone actually seen any of these netbooks?

I'm very interested in them....but Best Buy, Circuit City etc...don't carry them.

Being a touch typist...I really need to touch the keyboard before buying one.

Any Ideas?

Would you buy it if it costs $3,000?

You should specify how much you are willing to pay.

They have it at Newegg.com, they have a new section over at bestbuy.com, i think you can look at them in store as well. I haven't seen any recently, but they just might be on the way.

I actually touched one over at Best Buy just yesterday, and the keyboard, while not the size of a standard keyboard, is pretty large. I was able to use the keyboard comfortably.

I touched/played with the one with the 10 inch screen. It's really nice, and now I KNOW I'm gonna get one.

That one was a celeron processor and way too darn slow, so I'm going for the Atom processor and the 2gb ram one.

I think Google beat them to it. It's called Google Docs. They're called NetBooks for a reason--to let servers do all the work.
