Don’t get me wrong, I like those too, and I am of the opinion that the enter button is in the wrong place on the 50G, but the 28 and 48 series get really really creaky, connections fail, the battery door breaks, the screens are lousier, and the keys turn to mush. The 50G on the other hand is quite rugged, the keys on mine feel like new 8 years on, the larger screen is extremely welcome, and so is the ability to run it off USB and use SD cards. I do feel like HP missed out by not putting the enter key in the right place and making it the proper size, but that’s really the only solid complaint one could make about the 50G. All in all I am happy to have my user unit and a brand new one too.

I have the 28c/s, 48 and 50g and I have the impression, confirmed by some people I know, that the 50g don't resist some heavy using, or a fall from the desk, and the 48 is rugged enough to resist a fall or an entire college period.
The 28 looks like a little more fragile.
It's just my impression.
