Cognitive load and cognitive burden - having to learn new keyboard and touchpad behaviors; wanting to learn more existing shortcuts for Docs and Mail. I’m really getting used to the touch pad, the light touch to click, the two finger swipe to scroll, much quicker than the keyboard shortcuts for home/end of line pageup/pagedown.

I have both a Nexus One and a Verizon MiFi and, in a limited connection room, I have to switch between the two which puts a pause in my writing in Google Docs (it has to reconnect).

Selecting via dragging is hard. Moving tabs, grab and select is hard.

Surprise.
Heather calls me to tell me that, as she's backing out of the driveway, there's a package on the porch. Hello, Cr-48.

Hilarious written documentation for the battery and initial startup. Card stating, if you opened this up, Intel inside. Great intro/welcome webapp. Jealous of the javascript animations.

Getting used to the keyboard without a lot of the conventional keys. Carrying around and taking notes - perfect, once the page up, page down (alt up, alt down) shortcuts were found. Struggling with some of the keyboard shortcuts, though. ctrl-alt-up, ctrl-alt-down; home, end. The on-screen keyboard shortcut help is really handy. Fish vs. Pony (I have a Fish)
