What is it: Ultra-portable laptop with the latest Centrino Duo technology
What we think: This laptop has good features and decent performance, but it's too heavy and too dull-looking to have us really lusting after it

| Review summary | The Q70 has plenty of grunt under the hood and a decent range of features. However, it's all wrapped up in a dull-looking and slightly too heavy and bulky chassis.

With 3G, Wi-Fi, good performance and extremely long battery life, plus being small and beautifully formed, the TZ21WN is Sony's best ultraportable yet, although it doesn't come cheap Read full review |
The Acer Ferrari One's appearance will polarise opinion, but there's no denying it's the finest netbook so far. It's quick, it's versatile and it's fabulously comfortable to use Read full review |
