The Eee utterly fails at your first two requirements. With the wireless on, the battery is only good for about 2.5 hours. The keyboard is not fullsize, unless they've released a new version with a normal sized keyboard, and it can feel a bit cramped for touch typing. My main complain, however, is the small shift key on the right side and the complete lack of a Ctrl key on same side. Storage ain't no problem, though, with the SD card slot.
