i have 10.6.3 up and running perfectly fine on my hp 311. there are a few rough spots but they're small and don't affect me. (ethernet doesn't wake from sleep...thats the only one i've seen)
so far, its my impression that this machine is a considerable step up from the dell mini 10v. the screen is downright spacious in comparison. this comes at the expense of smaller pixels but i'm happy to make that trade. i believe i notice a speed improvement but the only difference could be the graphics processor....or the additional GB of ram (i'm running 3 total).
the main site of discussion for hp 311 machines are the forums over at insanelymac. the people there are extremely knowledgeable but like most people, they'll visit the forum every couple of days. this can leave you advice free for a couple of days. i'm trying to lend my help to better define the install process and, in general, increase support for this hardware.

in all, its taken a bit more elbow grease but i'm very happy with the result.
