    I just read in a swedish computer magazine (an ad) about Acer Aspire 1802WSMi. Besides the crappy battery specs (one hour) it looks
    awesome :)

    If anyone happens to come across a review or if you happens to buy one ... let the rest of us know!

    Anyone know if the Mobility X600 is in the new "Axiom" format? I.E. upgradeable?

    Thanks
