I got a Toshiba. Not only did I have to make sure that it had a full sized numeric keypad, I discovered that I had to make sure there was an indicator for numlock and for caps lock. I wonder if there is something else I should have been looking for that I would expect to be standard.
I'm sure you will find the answer to that question soon enough. Let me know how you like it. I love my iPad, but we would also like to get a laptop. Some things you just need to have an actual computer, and the tablet just won't do.
