For mobility (and batterylife) look at smaller screen laptops.
But the mainstream is 15.4" so you can expect to get the best deals there.
Most laptops today have SD card readers but simple usb cardreaders (adapters) are available. For heavy graphical work an external monitor might be the soulution.
As for HD don't over do it on the internal disk. Bigger disks (in GB) often generate more heat than smaller and heat is bad. Many laptops come with ExpressCard and/or eSATA connectors. With these expansion options you can add external HD's that will be close to the internal disk in performance.

Hope this helps
