    I have a question for all those smarter then I. Do all X60s come with Ultralight, or is it somekind of option you need to choose? I was looking around the Lenovo website and don't see it listed as an add on like Flexview is. Thanks so much for the help

    I wasn't assuming the x60 came with it at all. I was specifically talking about the x60s series. Sorry if I didn't make that clear

    Most of the UL screens are being diverted to Japan, where minimizing weight seems to be more important in order to compete with all the nice ultraportables that Asia has to offer. That's why they have the 1.8" HD x60s there which only weighs 2.54lb.

    It would be nice to see the effect of a UL screen on battery life since the LCD contributes to the largest portion of the drain on the battery. Maybe an increase of 15 minutes to 30 minutes with the UL? One can dream. :)

    I'll be recieving my x60s on Tuesday. I can't wait!
