A couple notes that are probably especially relevant to you: the keyboard is small. Very small. Small enough that your hands/arms will be in a different location than they usually are -- and a couple of times while using it, I've gotten twinges in arms, which is obviously a problem. (In all cases, I've put down the computer and walked away for an hour, and never had any problems when I've come back: it's just a different position than I would usually use a computer in.
I think you use speech recog stuff a lot now, iirc: this is probably too slow/small to run much of that.
For me, I absolutely adore it. I can't do any *real* work on it because the screen is too small for map-based web development, but it's great for word processing, and it's speedy, light, and cute.
