A new model with a 8.9" screen will be released in the coming months, and will be offered with Windows XP as an alternative to the Xandros Linux used in the current models.
You can put XP on the older models, but it cripples the performance and takes up more room on the storage card. Bit of a shocker that, Microsoft operating system is a bit cr**y.

I think you can put Ubuntu on it if you like your Linux with a flashy front end
