Funny, I have an utra portable laptop that I got back in November 2005 that has an optical drive built in (it can burn double-sided DVD and it is +R and -R compatible) and weighs 2.7 lbs.
I am still using it today....Sony TX-670.
Sony has TX line for the last few years which has been ultra-portable, light, built-in optical drive and standard battery last me 6 hours. Built in wi-fi, bluetooth, and even wireless modem (my was Cingular EDGE), but now Sony uses Sprint's version of 3G.
My sony laptop has carbon fiber shell as well.
Check out my post in November 2005 at X5world....
