I've put the 160Gb eeePC on my Christmas wish list, I like the idea of all that extra storage and I'm not at all rough on my equipment so shock proofing won't be an issue. On the subject of flash memory wearing out, there are different types of flash memory, the flash memory used in devices like the eeePC should have a comparable life to Hdd's. I've seen cards with lifetime warranties and expected lifecycles of over 1 million read write cycles.
