Works best in the winter. I can stick it under my coat to see the screen!

I've got an Acer mini for the field. Best tool I ever got. 6 cell, battery literally last me all day if you use proper energy saving settings. It weighs hardly anything and I stick it in a backpack and hike it up a tower all the time. The only thing I wish it had was an anti-glare screen. Those new glossy screens suck on sunny days.

These would be in for installs, dispatching, troubleshooting, speed testing, all of that general use stuff. We aren't looking for a lot -- just a GigE NIC, 10.1 or bigger screen (one that works well in the sun is a plus), Windows 7, 3-6 hour battery is fine, and 80GB or so of HDD is plenty. Right now we use Dell Latitude D-630s, but they're heavier and larger than we really need. We're thinking about a Dell 2100 or 2110 right now (which I need to verify has GigE). If you have a certain portable you like to use, I would be interested in hearing your recommendations.
