I went for a Asus Eee PC Seashell series netbook, 12.1" screen, not so much Ultra but is great to throw in a brief case or a bag, plenty of battery life. Has a led backlit screen, wireless, quick boot, camera, sound etc.

Do a little BMW coding on the X5, plays DVD's etc, cheap, if it gets damaged just buy another one, at $379.

I have a good 15" laptop and now seldom use it, wasted all that money, could buy a cheap netbook every year for 4 years which would give me the current model and still have saved money!
