Very much considering it. Same hardware profile as the pandora. 7 inch screen is a little on the big side. Would rather this type of form factor with a 5 inch screen to be able to fit into a cargo pocket. Definitely thinking of trying out one. and 15 days no questions asked return policy makes it ridiculously tempting.

It looks super-interesting to me. The price is right. The battery life is right. The size is ok by me -- I'll keep my N810 for pocketable moments that my Centro doesn't take care of.
In fact, it is within impulse-buy range, for strong impulses. I need to see some early hands-on reviews, though. It looks better than the Pandora as far as I'm concerned -- I have no particular interest in using one of these things for gaming.

I call it a prank. It was believeable to the point where it says 'the whole screen is magnetic for mounting on a fridge'.

Magnetic mounting isn't too weird... I put velcro on the back of my tablet, for sticking it to the back of a car seat...

I'll take one, but only after they actually make it. I bet this will either not be shipped till summer or it may just be a hoax.

9" ARM Mertop FTW!
More info on Gizmodo -- they got a preview with mockup hardware.
Yeah, I'm probably hanging on till I see some reviews of the final hardware, so not preordering yet, but this could be worth grabbing. (Also, financial constraints might make me pick between this and the RX-51, so it would be nice to see where the dpad is on that. If it's concealed like the N810, I'm likely to go for this and keep my N8x0s for tablet usage; if it's fixed, I'm upgrading tablets and keeping the venerable 701.)
What I really want is one of these, but with a 7" or less screen and/or 1280x800ish resolution.
(BTW, looks to me like the keyboard just might be USB + power -- if so, one could make a holder for the N800 to slot into that keyboard... Interesting, and it would finally win the World Bezel Championship from the 7" Eees! OTOH, I can get a small USB keyboard and battery pack, and a roll of duct tape, elsewhere for less than $100...)
