Decided to take the plunge with a new laptop....
Sony Vaio VGN-S1XP/C
Very very very tasty piece of kit.
My model comes with 1gig ram, 100gig drive, and a rather nippy Centrino Dual core Processor T2400. Made out of carbon fiber so it works out at about 1.5kg.

I would say the only problem I have found with it so far is the amount of junk that sony pre-load on to the machine. Saps so much power as standard. First thing i did was wipe it (including a stealthy partition sony put in for backup reasons), and reinstall clean XP.
Bit of a mission since sony dont provide a recovery CD in with it. Tut tut.
