Nope, no Irda


No 1394 or TV Out




Too bad the rubber is on the battery.. so when you took out the battery, U hv to use something to hold the notebook, else it will be not stable.












Design Flaw?


Glare?

The successor to PCMCIA CardBus. I think CardBus top bandwidth is that of PCI bus, and Express Card top speed is that of 1x PCI Express.

If a laptop runs on PCI Express like yours, it shouldn't be too difficult for the manufacturers to install Express Card slot.

I try really hard to look for a laptop with Express Card slot, but apparently, it's an exclusive feature on Intel 915PM chipset right now. Even so, only a handful of 915PM laptops have this new slot.
