I thought of that, or an iPod Touch, but (1) the screen is too small,  
and (2) I want a proper computer with a proper keyboard so I can  
actually compose long mails on it when I need to. I also want to be  
able to run Lightroom, not for serious editing but at least for the  
initial cull of images at night in the hotel.

Cheers,
Nathan
