Small Laptop

[wcavanagh]

Peeps,

After some advice. Looking at getting a light portable laptop. Want something fast, and powerfull, but light and easy to travel with. I will be using it for work, mainly programming, and tech support. So needs 3G internet, a good screen, and good battery life.

Been looking online and the Sony, Z series seem to do well. The 13.3 Screen is perfect.

Anyone used one? Any others I should look at?

Sony Vaio VGN-Z21WN/B is what im looking at the mo, can get an extended battery for 6.5 hours use.

Warning about sony tx (i think) i had a few several years ago and they were all duffs. Having said that some peoples were fine.

Friend of mine just got a hp touchsmart and its a dear little thing, no 3g but the screen swivels and is touchy feely. Downside is that its heavier.
