i was looking at the u50 and u70s and they had an add for “the world smallest notebook, the jvc_mpxv, with an internal dvdrw drive” i’m sorry if this has been mentioned, but i thout it was funny, since it weighs 3.24 pounds (could be that the extended battery is standard…) but anyway, it isn’t that much smaller, and pretty much the same thing (much smaller screen though) http://www.icube.us/Products/jvc_mpxv.htm only it weighs more, so maybe its just more dense (could be the battery, i know). i’m sorry for being redundadnt if i am…

sony claims the TR weighs 3.11 pounds, but when I weighed it, it came upto 4 pounds…the 4 might not be right but it’s certainly more than 3.11. I’m pretty sure the machine ur referring to weighs 3.24 pounds (again can’t trust manufacturer on this figure) with the standard battery.
