It'd be nice to provide more than just Skype and Firefox. OpenOffice, Pidgin and Evince would be worthwhile additions.

Unfortunately, without a hard drive, OO and Pidgin aren't too useful, unless you're going to carry a thumb drive for that stuff.

The system has a hard drive - as the article mentions, drivers would be easy to set up. Linux has had stable NTFS drivers for a year now.

Ditto other webkit browsers - from my Nokia N95 this looks horrible.
