    The eSATA is a dual port that can also fit USB devices. It is tighter than regular USB and you need to be careful with the correct orientation though.

    Ordered the $449 Ubuntu one for the fiance (putting win7 on it) and it's set to arrive today.

    I'll take pictures and right up a review as soon as I can.

    Can anyone that has this laptop already check something out for me?
    If you ordered the laptop without the internal wireless broadband, does it still have thesim holder and 3g antennas installed?

    I finally recieved My V13 Today,bought the $449 model,was very pleasently surprised at the build quality and LCD Panel is bright and not grainy.Removed the back,popped in an SSD and loaded up windows 7 ultimate,color me impressed.Anyone thinking about a netbook in this price range should take a closer look at the V13 instead.
