    So, I was looking for a luxury ultraportable and considered the Mac Air, Sony Z, Dell Adamo, Asus VX3 Lamborghini, and HP Voodoo Envy 133. I know, Voodoo's future is uncertain. But I just bought a new Voodoo Envy 133 anyway because the price was right, and I couldn't justify the extra cost of the others.

    The best commercial review I found was this:

    Any real world user reviews?

    I'll be able to add mine when my Envy 133 arrives this week. And as soon as Windows 7 arrives, that will be installed also!

    How much did you pay and what configuration did you get?

    It's a beautifully designed notebook with a lot of useful features.. but the price:what you get ratio is EXTREMELY lacking. Return it and get a cheaper and nicer laptop, such as the ones listed in your link.
