I ordered one. My old traveling computer (HP nee Compaq TC1100 Tablet -- but I never use it as a tablet ) is in need of replacement. I'm not much for working on the plane, so battery use is mostly when I'm too lazy to plug in. Mostly don't need an optical drive when traveling (but I bought the add on). I would have like to seen an Ethernet port, since sometimes at customers I have to use a wired connection, but I can live with the dongle.

Looked at the Sony VAIO -- I owned a used one back in Pentinum I days that I liked very much -- and if I could buy it with XP or even Win2K I might have

A client bought a bunch of Toughbooks for their salesman, and they have problems -- not that tough and a long, long time to get problems fixed so I was leary of them.

Just sad it won't come in time for my next "Beer Run" to Germany in a couple weeks.
