In a continuing battle to have the lightest (and most appealing) note book yet, Toshiba has leaped ahead.  Officially introducing a 3G upgrade to the already impressive Portege R500.  According to Engadget:

Two new 12.1-inch, HSDPA-equipped configurations will be available this month: the ultra-lightweight (and ultra-pricey) R500-11J, highlighted by a 64GB SSD drive and impressive 1.72-pound package, and the cheaper, optical drive-packing R500-11I, which features the same 1.20GHz U7600 CPU and 2GB of RAM, but introduces a less appealing 120GB HDD. Pricing should be around €2,500 ($3,658) for the high-end 11J and €2,050 ($3,000 even) for the heavier 11I.

Sounds great and looks even better!
