Got last year for 300. Amazon has now for 700 :( And most important. It does not have CPU to run things like silly flash games :)

What model? I have a 1000HE. Its portability and battery life are great for travel, but its form factor makes it painful for development (without an external monitor/keyboard/mouse).

the pure 1000. i think it's the only one with ssd... never cared much for the others.

it's ok for running vim. :)
