I'm a django developer and I received one of these as part of the pilot program. I tried to use it as my main machine for a while, it does have a very limited terminal, so I was able to SSH into my servers and do stuff that way, but overall I just found myself too restricted to really get things done like I could on my normal workstation. ChromeOS itself is pretty slick, although the CR48 pilot chromebooks were a bit slow for some things, general browsing was fine. I won't be using one for my development machine any time soon, although if they get the HTML5 Netflix player working we may end up with a few more of these in our household.
