There are a whole host of WXGA (1280 x 768) laptops hitting the market on a variety of sizes, from as tiny as a 7.2" screen found on the Toshiba Libretto U100/U105 to, well, too big. I think 11" or less is a good size for this resolution

I was spoiled with an SXGA+ screen too (ibm t23 w/ a screen that has decided to take a permanent vacation) but I'm looking into the sub 3lb category for my replacement.

Fujitsu P7000 series are worth looking into.
The Libretto is about the size of a VHS tape, but as you can imagine, typing on it can be quite tricky.
