What about the Fujitsu LX-S series? I just saw one today, and
it's almost as small as my L110. Only one PCMCIA slot, though.
However, even cooler, is the LX-T, which is only marginally
bigger, and has a DVD drive.
If anyone's tried either of these, dish! Dish!!! Seriously, the
LX subnotes may just become the proper replacement for the libby, as it's
been a tad... flaky.
