I have one too! :-)  Natty works surprisingly well out of the box.

You will need a USB keyboard, at least temporarily (I couldn't get
Unity to run an onscreen keyboard except by using a keyboard :-).

Thank you for that "Update Repos" section! I'd been trying to find the
right repo to make zypper work.

I had no luck updating from the MeeGo snapshot from last Friday --
meego-tablet-ia32-pinetrail-1.1.99.4.20110426.4.img didn't boot for
me or for another person on #meego.

I didn't need to make any sudo changes for QtCreator.
