I have a Nokia N800 and a folding keyboard I can use with it, but the screen is too small for real work. I want something with a 12" screen that's very light.
I'm told the next generation of NVidia chips are going to be amazing. A friend is working in high end audio, making a "iphone on steroids" touch-screen remote for the system. The tablet will have full 3D graphics for an 8" screen with half the thickness of an iphone. With a tiny folding keyboard, solid state storage, and some sacrifices on batter life for size, hardware designers should be able to put an ultra-ultra-portable on the market within a year or two.
The screen is actually pretty small on the Eee. Too small for any development unless you're using a curt language and exclusively single character variables :)

This has been rumored for a year or two now. I'll believe it (and probably buy it) when I see it. The Asus Eee is nice, but I'd like something I can comfortably touch-type on...
