A while ago I managed to take a look at Time's Athlon 64-powered Platina laptop computer. Thorougly impressive and now under £1000 with Model 3000+, here's a snippet.

I'm left wanting for a better display, DDR400 SODIMMs, 802.11g, some slight keyboard tweaks and a nice rucksack to carry it around in. It looks good, it performs well, the bundle is excellent and you get 64-bit computing on the move. Battery life isn't as shocking as you'd think either.

It's not perfect by any means, poor basic ergonomics leave me with a bad aftertaste, but it makes a good case for itself otherwise. Keep it in your thoughts if high power on the move is what you need, it's basically the VoodooPC Envy m:855, sold by a UK retailer for £400 less.
At the time of writing the Model 3200+ version was over £1600. Time have recently done a special offer, selling a Model 3000+ version for £999 inc VAT. The Model 3200+ pricing has slipped dramatically too.

Highly recommended at their new price levels.
