me too still deciding between acer 4810tg n asus ul80vt..heres some pros n cons i am concern:

Acer Pros
1. SU9400 (any big difference in performance compared to SU7300 at default clock speed?)
2. 1.3mp webcam
3. Touchpad

Acer Cons
1. Small arrow keys
2. Lower cell battery
3. Paint on the palm rest area looks like will discolor after sometime


Asus Pros
1. Sony vaio lookalike keyboard with normal size arrow keys
2. Higher cell battery and its claim 12 hrs usage (should at least beable to last 1-2 hrs more than acer?)
3. Design and build looks better than acer

Asus Cons
1. 0.3mp webcam
2. Asus using atheros single band 2.4ghz wireless card compare to acer using intel 5100 dual band 2.4ghz/5ghz (read from another forum some u.s users are experiencing connection drop with their ul30 altho different model but ul80 also using the same wireless card)

i guess the drop connection could be the 1 antenna in the ul30 hopefully its not the same in ul80 (owners of the ul80 can confirm this?)..still the atheros they used r single band which makes it unable to utilize the 5ghz on my dlink 855

i am also leaning more towards the asus ul80vt 0.3 webcam wont be much of an issue since i wont use it alot and hopefully the intel 1000 wireless card dont have the weak signal n drop connection problem

the intel wifi link 1000 is a newer version than the 5100/5300 which some say it uses less power but no dual band...
