Hey Jason. I chose the Lenovo IdeaPad S10 at $399. It has a larger
10.2" screen, but roughly the same size overall. I bumped the RAM up
to 1.5 GB for $15. The harddrive is 80 GB. $50 more gets 160 GB. I
just ordered the factory bluetooth option from China for $28. It
should be here in a few weeks. It came with Windows XP home. I
upgraded it to Vista Ultimate and that is working very well. I have
UI-View32 installed with Precision Mapping 8.0. I was surprised that
the maps render as fast as my more powerful desktop.
