Just got my A1000 delivered today.  Woohoo!

Price wasn't bad at all on eBay, just the shipping to Canada is a killer.  Bought this one without a keyboard, but already had one lying around.

Boots up, everything is original (minus a couple of case screws) and the drive reads everything I've thrown at it so far.  Without a doubt, the A1000 is my favourite machine of all.  Got my first one in about October of 1984 - before the official release date - lots of "dealer" demos came with it then.  I wish all the new machines (FPGA based or PPC, AROS, whatever) would play the A1000's startup tune as a tribute.

There is also a really sweet A3000 on eBay right now too:
