    Does anyone have any experience of the Edge E130, as featured here? Can they provide a general comment on its quality and performance?
    Thanks

    It appears the Edge E130 is only available in the Asia region, I know it's not being sold in the Americas and I don't think Europe has it either so the number of people owning this might be quite limited. I'm sure the build quality and performance is going to be very similar to the Edge E430 that has quite a number of owners -- the case is made of a thick plastic and you don't get the magnesium roll cage, but it's still solid and has the standard ThinkPad keyboard that doesn't appear to be shrunken in anyway. The performance will depend on the processor, but since it's an undervolted processor it won't be as fast as the standard voltage found in the larger Edge series such as E430. You can still get up to a Core i5 3rd generation ULV which would still be more than enough power for any typical business usage.
