I too am pretty intrigued by this device. Honestly, on paper it looks like everything I want. (I prefer physical keyboards, but only slightly.)

My biggest concern is SE's track record of announcing a phone to much hype and praise, only to release it 6 months later when no one cares anymore.

This is probably the last, best hope for a truly excellent Android phone this year. (Droid is close IMO, but not quite there.)
