I've found it more than sufficient for my needs - yes, an i5 would be more interesting, but the fact is that in this form factor probably would be a little more difficult to use, heat-wise. I'm holding out that GPD will produce a followup after the clear success of the Pocket so far .. maybe in a few months we'll see a "GPD Book" that pushes things a bit more .. In the meantime though, I'm finding the Atom perfectly cromulant. It handles everything I throw at it, compiling big projects is just a little less performant than I'm used to, but for a majority of the time I hardly even notice. Most important is the amount of RAM - 8 gigs - I think this makes a big difference at this scale.
