I saw one of these are Fry's Electronics and fell in love almost instantly. The thing is hardly any bigger than a small hardcover book, and yes indeed, the screen is brilliant. The built-in camera isn't of much better fare than, say, a pretty decent webcam, but what can ya really ask for at this price.

CNet.com has a review of this up too:

"The VAIO TR1A is a tad too diminutive to serve as your primary computer, but it's an awesome supplementary system for frequent fliers."

At any rate, it seems like something I would love to carry around the campus, but at $2k+ I can deal with the clunky reg-sized laptop
