Is it also available in plain black without the badge? So I don't have to feel like a 13 year old boy or italian poser?
lol, All dissing of the Yukon platform aside, I just purchased an HP based off of it.
HP dv2z with the important bits listed below.
12in 1280x800 LED backlit screen
AMD Turion X2 Neo, 1.6GHz with 512KB L2 cache per core
Radeon 3410m discreet GPU
2GB of ram (for now)
55Wh 6cell battery
I'm seeing 3-4 hours of battery life depending on use.
It is a really sweet little laptop. I'm totally in love with it.
See System Specs.
I'm kinda sick of my Dell Mini 9.... it's just too irritatingly slow!
I don't know what the next generation of the Atom platform will be like, but Congo and CULV seem to be the way forward...

Interesting spec. But it's got to stylish, not tacky, and it's got to be sub £400! Why do the manufacturers mock us so? It is really that hard to get the spec and asthetics of a netbook right.
Matt screen
Sturdy build quality
1280x800 or 1366x768 res
Basic 3D capability (HD3200 / ION/9400M or better)
Less than 1.5Kg
Less than 30cm x 20cm x 2.5cm
Maximum keyboard and screen size for chassis
6 cell battery
£400 retail cost
Dual core CPU (Atom, anything, just DUAL CORE)
4 hour battery life minimum in general useage
That's all we want, stop pissing us about!!!!

Aaargh!! The specs on this is almost what I would get but would some manufacturer out there start to think about doing a 13.3" Touch screen AMOLED and supporting it with Win 7 and get rid of the mouse/track pad!
the question we need to ask given that AMD bill their ultra-thin platforms as genuine computers rather than media consumption devices is; will they provide driver support for OpenCL?
a question that patrick moorhead seems reluctant to answer:

i would understand if there was a technical reason that made it difficult to get good OpenCL performance from the DX10 shaders used in the 780G, but i would be very disappointed if it was done purely for market segmentation purposes.
AMD cannot have it both ways, they advertise the wonderful OpenCL support in Tigris, and yet fail to enable it in their genuine computer ultra-thin platform.
