Put it this way, i spent 8 hours typing a report on that laptop last night. I don't have any issue with the keyboard.

Dongles? I use wifi and bluetooth headset. Micro SD card slot is also a bonus for this laptop. The only 'dongle' required if you want to use ethernet.

Keyboard is good - but I'm struggling a little bit with the size - it's a lot larger than the tiny little one I've been using on my dell mini 9 for so long. once I get used to it, I'm sure it will be fine. I do find I have to put more force into some keys than I'm used to - again, once I'm used to it it won't be a problem

Trackpad is *excellent*. A very good synaptics style clickpad with brilliant multi-touch support.

1600x900 on the X3C (13.3") is very nice.
