I _really_ like the widescreen, and the 10-key pad. I am considering buying it even with the Broadcom wireless, in the slimmest of hopes some brilliant kernel hacker will be able to get it working, even without Broadcom's help. Also note that the built-in 10/100 Ethernet is Realtek, and should work just fine.
For wireless, I am going to try the PCMCIA D-Link cards, as their wireless PCI cards work fine in 9.1 (though not in 9.0)
Later today I plan on trying the updated 9.1 live-eval in an actual zd7260us (and then probably buying it).
FWIW, I have a zd7000. 9.1 installed more or less "out of the box" apart from wireless, which I have going with the linuxant driver. Some people have also had success with ndiswrapper. The display is a breeze to set up in 9.1 with the nvidia drivers - you just need to add 1440x900 to the available resolutions. Lots of useful information on the zd7000 forums. David
