Bandwidth isn't free. I've not seen anything in the Ts and Cs about any limits, although I've not looked that hard yet...

I thought WebOS on Nicola's Palm Pre was fantastic (when it worked)

Hmm starting to get an ichy wallet

I use a netbook dialy for watching movies / playing the odd game on the daily commute ( and its hard to balance it on the steering wheel ;) )

Anyway it cant play HD stuff as its not powerful enought (its a Samgung NC10) nso maybe this would be better as it would be smaller (with same sized screen and more powerful

I wouldn't say "more powerful" but they're generally better optimised and less clumsy to use when it comes to entertainment. They're great at what they do because they've been tuned to do just those few things well, rather than a netbook running a full-blown operating system.

Note, most pads don't have a full HD resolution screen. But then neither does the NC10. Further note, you may have to convert videos to play on it - most play a fairly restrictive set of codecs that are hardware optimised.
