OK, so most of you know I'm still hovering over the ocean of indecision over the CPU. To add to the confusion is the $$$ issue as well as price/size/weight/performance/durability matrix.
Here is a blog that details a nice simple idea:

He is using the new sony UX280p. http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/05/sony-drops-the-ux280p-with-twice-the-ram-and-hdd/
This is kinda pricey (although i have found 2 sources under 800$) and i'm not sure it really holds up to the eee pc for the cost, but with the eee at ~400 and this for ~750 who knows. I'd get 2 cams, bluetooth, a big fat hdd, and slightly better battery life.
His blog also reminded me about my need for external batteries (batterygeeks seems decent) and is the 3rd serious proponent of the chord typing appliance. Any idea how to make something like this retreat into a sleeve?
Haven't had a chance to read these yet (free reg reqd) posting them to do it later:
