Have had it for a week or so now, have been using it as my primary pc as had to send my existing laptop for repair.

Based on my experience so far no issues whatsoever, here's the pros:
1- Excellent size, probably the most appropriate for netbook, totally sufficient if you increase the font size.
2- The build quality is excellent, as solid as the best out there.
3- Excellent display and battery life.
4- Got black/brushed silver, looks excellent.
5- Have been very satisfied with the performance.

Tips:
1- As mentioned in other reviews..bloated a bit, I ended up removing a lot of software (note: burn the system recovery cds or you may lose the software if uninstalled)
2- Get a micro usb mouse and you won't have to use the touch bad, really enhances the overall experience.HP Wireless Optical Mouse
3- Mentioned in another review...there's a nice short cut on keyboard for display brightness...found it very useful...its FN + arrow keys.

Cons:
Wont let you save the recovery disk image on an external drive..this would have allowed me to burn the recovery disks from my other laptop which has the burner.

Note: Got mine at Bestbuy in Toronto, comes with a regular battery...lasts for 3 hours. Looking at the battery amazon is throwing in ie lasts eight hours...its absolutely an incredible deal.
