        <description><![CDATA[We got an HP laptop with an i3 for $650 that has about the same weight, and about the same dimensions, but is more capable than any computer we have in the house. I already consider that &quot;ultraportable&quot; and the cost was about $650 WITH OFFICE included.Maybe we just got a deal?I think this is just marketing hype to promote a product that is probably less durable with about the same capability (or less) for more money.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Good speech recognition and other user interface breakthroughs in my opinion are going to bring people to the marketplace.  I just bought a Droid Bionic and have been amazed at how reliable the speech recognition is.  It has changed the way that I previously interacted with my mobile device by allowing me a more natural avenue.  Unfortunately the Ultrabook kind of comes across as a Jabberwocky project.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[I am looking at this as I have various non expanable Apple products (notebooks and iMAC) storage is restricted and without some level of expansion inside or out they're constrained. There is no earthly reason that an eSATA II port cannot be on any of the systems. This hold very true for the small devices with minum storage capability. The SATA controller is already part of every computer made today. So no external port is just unacceptable. I concider that looking at the SATA genertions of the iMAC with all that rea estate ports were constrained and more storage outside (not firewire or USB but much faster SATA II). I've been looking for a new notebook but its extremely hard to find a higher end on with eSATA and other established ports for various connectivity.I'll wait until the Ivy Bridge Mobile lines come out this year now from Intel.]]></description>
