Ultraportable laptops
Updated December 14, 2005

More than just arm candy, these svelte laptops have the looks and the brains that your thriving business needs. Need to connect to the Internet from anywhere? The VAIO T350P's integrated cellular radio will let you tap into Cingular's EDGE network. Want to read or write CDs and DVDs on the run? The LifeBook P7010D and the VAIO T350P feature integrated optical drives. Want a screen that's comfortable enough to stare at all day? The ThinkPad X41 and the Dell Latitude X1 both offer 12.1-inch displays. And because they all weigh less than 3.5 pounds, the biggest sacrifice you'll make is justifying that massage as a business expense.

Review summary Though it's expensive, the Sony VAIO VGN-TX670P delivers a great combination of business and entertainment features, long battery life, and unparalleled connectivity in an incredibly ultraportable package. The Dell Latitude X1 squeezes everything a business user will need (except for an integrated optical drive) into a sleek, featherweight case. Though costly and a bit heavier than the ThinkPad X40, the ultraportable ThinkPad X41 is still a great choice for the corporate road warrior's dream machine. Though it's a tad expensive, the Toshiba Portege R200 is a well-designed ultraportable with enough speed and battery life for business travelers. An inexpensive business ultraportable, the TravelMate TM3002WTCi offers an appealing design, plus lots of speed and battery life, but it lacks some security features and support niceties.
