I wouldn't bother. It will go down in history alongside the G4 cube as a niche (nee failed) product.
The remote drive setup is a royal pain in the ass and between the two, your money is much better spent on a fully loaded 2.2Ghz MacBook.
The only appeal IMO is the optional solid-state drive, but the price premium is nuts.

That's the other problem. 
On principle, I don't like paying a premium to be a beta tester for any first-gen tech.

Very slick, but lack of upgradeable ram or hdd, no replaceable battery, and no optical drive means it doesn't work as an only computer and limits its use for business travelers.
