Solved! Is the Asus T101MT worth it?

[dchae85]

I actually found one selling as an open box item for $350, $150 less than the normal selling price. Should I buy it, or just buy a cheaper new netbook? I don't necessarily need the tablet conversion, and it honestly seems more like a gimmick than a useful tool to me. This is mostly because I prefer typing fast compared to writing to take notes. I'm not sure if that's enough for me to spend $50 to $80 more for an open box item.

It's not a bad deal. However, if you feel that it would be more of a hindrance than productive for you, I'd shoot for the netbook.
