I would be careful about that.
The price is nice but the question is how well the hardware works with a 
real open standard linux system.
I have an zaurus from sharp, which comes close to the nanonote. However, 
if I not go to use one of the heavy patched 2.4 kernels from sharp, 
suspend and resume is not working and the device hangs up.
That makes it rather useless since I don't want to power on and shutdown 
the device to add a note to org-mode and the 2.4 linux branch from sharp 
does not contain emacs.
Furtermore, I own a ebook-reader from a chinese manufacture and looking 
at the linux OS showed me that they really mess up many many things to 
bend it to working. Guess they are not really taking care of standards 
or of further user-based upgrades.

Thus, my suggestion please find out how well the hardware runs on 
GNU/Linux standard kernels and distributions (e.g., debian). If you know 
please report :D

Just my experience from some own "org-mode on the go" experiments.

Bye
