If their conditions are, basically, just obvious stuff like disclaiming all warranties or responsibilities for anything you do--then they've won me over. I really wasn't even considering them because I assumed the worst out of Sony, given so much of their history. I've avoided buying Sony ever since the CD rootkit fiasco of 2003/2004--and I've successfully NOT purchased a thing from them ever since, but this might convince me to give them another chance to earn back my interest in their product. Good on them for finally thinking about selling the customer what THEY want, not what the company's executive paranoids think will benefit the company despite customers.

It seems like a really great suite, and I hope that other companies follow suit. With software like this, it may be possible to take productivity on the go with only a tablet. With a keyboard and mouse, it may be possible to leave the laptop at home for casual tasks.
If I've learned anything from my experience with Maemo and Nokia, it's this: If it's not out, I can't buy it and I can't even so much as download a demo--it doesn't exist as far as I'm concerned, and I even feel a certain amount of contempt for being teased with something that isn't out.
