    Tired of waiting, I checked the Acer UK link. It has the wrong photo and some inacurate info, but it's interesting enough for me to hold off buying the Sony TX850 or other ultralight.

    Hmmm...512 Hypermemory with 256 "dedicated" system memory. What's that mean? 2 Ghz CPU sounds great along with Bluetooth 2.0 EDR and 160 Gig Hard drive all in a 12" screen package. I wont mind the exterior Firewire DVD drive...you?

    Wonder how the 2 Ghz Turion X2 CPU compares with the 2 Ghz Intel duo core?

    Not so well is synthetic benchmarks - it is beaten by quite a margin, but in real world applications i doubt there is a huge difference.
