I have my eye on the new Tohsiba T300CT: marketing bs: http://www.toshiba.com/tais/csd/products/portable/portege/overview/index.htm specs: http://www.toshiba.com/tais/csd/products/pspecs2/index.htm I don't think its shipping yet; NECX doesn't have them in stock. P133MMX/32mb/PCI/1.51gb/1024x600active/ 24bit color, 3.8lbs! Now if it only had one of the sub 2.0 volt mobile pentiums, it would really be cool (pun intended). Personally, the only pointing device I like is the `eraser', so I haven't even considered the NECs. The HPs subnotebooks would be worth considering if they didn't have that *stupid* pop-out mouse.
