Axiotron ModBook with built-in WAAS-enabled GPS review (Core 2 Duo 2.2GHz, 2GB RAM, 160GB HDD)

The ModBook includes an industry-standard one-year parts-and-labor warranty (upgradeable to three years for $349) through its official reseller, Other World Computing. That does not fill us with confidence, as we couldn't find any ModBook-specific tech support information on OWC's Web site (macsales.com), and tech support (via a toll call) is only available 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturdays.
