... for under £100 inc postage.
Been waiting for price to drop. Was only afterwards I realised I could use it as a 3-way mobile/SIP/Skype phone.
Hardware is nice. Initial impressions of the UI weren't good - there needs to be a nice user intro video stickied in an obvious place. Scrolling was a PITA before installing the CSSA update(?) although I was using a fingernail.
I then tried to install Opera from an RPI file. Ouch, especially as I've never used Linux before.
Changed the theme to the yellower one and got used to the interface. Found Opera on the App Manager and suddenly we were away!
Adding non-default repositories was another PITA. How are new users even supposed to know they exist?
Installed the speedpatch et al and a few other UI improvements and am now very happy.
