I use an IBM x61 only weighs 1.7kg, 12" screen, WiFi. Four cell 
battery only lasts 2.5 hours though, maybe swapping the drive for an 
SSD might extend battery life - not at IBM prices though.

If you had Aldi in NZ, they have both an AsusEE clone or currently a 
netbook for AU799 / AU$999 respectively - they don't think weight is 
important in their specs.
