Laptopmag.com has some hands on time with the device too. Besides some unique views of the Reader Laptop Magazine, the article describes “the annotate key that lets you mark up different parts of the on screen text.

Lightly scribbling on the screen was responsive.”
They promise a forthcoming video.
