I'm looking for an extremely portable / ultra thin sleek looking laptop that I could use for generic web 2.0 development on the go. It doesn't seem like they exist for 15" (or larger) screens though, and I can't see myself coding on anything smaller.

What are my options? Not particularly interested in a Mac at this point.
 
The Dell Inspiron 15z is thin, 5 lbs, 1.14" inches thick at its tallest point.
Dell also has the Latitude Z that is 4.5 lbs, 16" screen, and .78" at its tallest point.

I'm sure there are some Japanese laptops out there that are super thin, those are the two that come to mind right away.
 
UL80VT, not sure if its been refreshed to a new model.
 
The HP Envy 15 is 1.04" thick, according to the website.
Yes that makes it thinner than the Envy 14. The downside is the 15 does not have a DVD drive.
 
15-inch MacBook Pro - 0.94 inches, 5.3 pounds, 8-9 hours of peak battery life (more like 6-7 with moderate use, but still). Not quite an ultraportable, but it's amazing how most cheaper notebooks end up weighing a pound more and have half the battery life.
