geek request

I'm thinking about getting an eee or something like it.  Does any one have opinions/advice either way about this category of machine?  My main concerns are:

- Battery life - it should last longer than the 3 hours of my MacBook Pro
- Keyboard comfort - I have normal sized girl hands, but i don't like to angle my wrists excessively, so it needs to be fairly comfortable
- OS and storage - I will try to run Linux and freeware.   I will try.
- Price - Max out at $500
