I've got the earlier M1210 and love it. I've got everything working under linux except the front microphone jack (which seems to need special driver support) and the webcam (which I just haven't got to yet). We've got an M1330 coming in in about a week too, and we'll be putting linux on it. I'll report back how we go.
