Dell Business has the Adamo-inspired Dell Vostro V13 13.3" WLED Ultra Thin Notebook for $399 + $8 shipping = $407 shipped. Takes design cues from the Adamo, but without the ludicrous price tag. [Compare]

      hmm... cpu is pretty weak but price looks about right for these specs. Right now I'm jonesing for the Asus UL30A-X5. It's a 13" model with a ULV cpu more than double this capacity, 4GBRAM, 500GBHDD and gets 10-12 hours of battery run time!!!

      UL30A-X5 is also about $600 so YGWPF.

      The price is good, the laptop is outstanding (though the battery life is a little lite, but no less than the $1000 Dell Adamo I bought), but Ben always list this as having a webcam, which the base unit never does. You have to move up to the $500 version to get the cam (by the way, the cam is nothing to write home about!).
