I wouldn't consider a chiclet keyboard. I highly doubt any real touch-typist would prefer it over a real keyboard. Dumb move Asus!]]>Apr 4th 2009 11:45AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/03/asus-eee-pc-1000ha-joins-its-comrades-in-the-chiclet-kingdom/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/03/asus-eee-pc-1000ha-joins-its-comrades-in-the-chiclet-kingdom/Apr 3rd 2009 1:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/03/asus-eee-pc-1000ha-joins-its-comrades-in-the-chiclet-kingdom/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/03/asus-eee-pc-1000ha-joins-its-comrades-in-the-chiclet-kingdom/omgosh, i bought 1000HA without chiclet like a week ago!!!!!!

ROTFL. Good one.

It has less contour (i.e. none), less travel, probably no audible click. Other than "looking cool" (in SOME people's eyes), I just don't see how chiclet keyboards can be in any way superior to the normal kind. As a company whose keyboards were well-received on the earlier Eee 1000 models, I'm quite surprised they would mess with a good thing like they did, especially as competitive as the Netbook wars are. (typing this on my MSi Wind's excellent keyboard)

While the keyboard on my Eee PC 1000HE is great, I think that a full sized version with the appropriate sized right shift key would kill.]]>Apr 4th 2009 1:12PM
