IT stuffs, random thoughts, foods, and being geek?

I hate to think that I am not mobile, not mobile in the sense that I do not have a laptop. For my lifestyle, I need one because I do go to school everyday, works anytime of the day as a blogger/contributor for a couple b5media blog - Office Tweaks and Jam Band News, and a freelance programmer/web developer/researcher and I.T. Consultant at night. Well, I am trying my best to have a proper time management to accomplish all tasks needed on time. That is a priority.
Now, I came to realize that I really need to get a laptop to give me more mobility that enables me to do school stuff and work anytime, anywhere at my convenience. Then, ASUS Eee PC came into my mind as it is cheap, light, very portable and suites my needs like coding, blogging, surfing, and doing the documents and reports. But I do not know yet if I will get ASUS Eee PC. I have read many good customer feedbacks and reviews about this laptop and already asked some users(friends) about their experience with ASUS Eee PC.
If I will look for a long term investment, I won’t get one because I need to have more functionalities with my laptop as my work evolves in due time. Yes, I can bring ASUS Eee PC anywhere when I travel but for a hardcore user like me, I think it won’t suffice all the applications and tools I need that are found in my desktop. ASUS Eee PC is limited in memory and screen resolution is limited as well.
But then I guess ASUS Eee PC will do for my short term goals… what do you think?

I got mine when I was in Manila Dec07/Jan08, and I’m so glad I did because they are so hard to get in Europe at the moment. People offer me a lot of money to buy mine due to the shortage… Meanwhile, I have re-installed it about 3524 times and it really fits my needs now. It is really great, the reviews are true. Apart from all the good things you can read everywhere, it’s also a really nice gadget to touch and it’s very robust (i like that). On the other hand, a lot will happen in that market segment in the next months to come.
