It looks too big for a convenient PDA, and too small
for a useful computer.  Is it Linux that's drawing
you too it?  There are lots of flavors of Linux, so
your favorite Linux app may not run on it. Is it the
keyboard?  Those are available for WinCE and Palm OS
PDAs.

As with any hardware decision, it boils down to "What
do you want to do with it?" That is, what applications
do you want to run? Figure that out, then see which
PDA runs them.  Then pick.

But if you like it, go for it.
