I've got a 4 year old Fujitsu 2110 P-Series, (running -CURRENT) it=20 gets excellent battery life and is small and light. The P-7000's are=20 nice but they don't meet your ExpressCard requirement. If you do go=20 with a Fujitsu get the high-capacity batteries, you won't be sorry. =2D-=20 Anish Mistry --nextPart2101287.VLT1OiU6cy Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBEaO5PxqA5ziudZT0RAp+iAJ4is9FcCyw4kMp48xg4/0+IFE8SqQCfSh54 oVSrJR+Rl5NW4YGeP8hnl/k= =pukD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart2101287.VLT1OiU6cy--
