Thanks, Frenchy, it looks nice, but look at the comparables provided in the CNET review I added after. The external optical drive may be a deal-breaker for some.....

The announcement is now up on the Dell site - http://www1.us.dell.com/content/topi...=us&l=en&s=gen


P.S. I almost bought a 700M the other day, but couldn't get it to my price point even with all the discount codes posted here.

Of course, I'm heartbroken by the news that Oqo and Flipstart are dead in the water now with the demise of Transmeta.
