Dell Latitude D420

The Dell Latitude D420 is a 3-pound lightweight laptop made of magnesium alloy and packing an Intel Core Solo processor that the company claims will last seven hours on a charge. It also has a "WiFi catcher" switch that can serve as a hotspot sniffer without turning on the laptop.

The standard system comes with a Smart Card reader and Trusted Platform Module security technology, and customers can add biometric fingerprint readers as well.

Connectivity includes 3 USB ports, an IEEE 1394 port, and an SD card slot.

CNET.com reviewed the Dell Latitude D420 laptop and wrote - "Dell's business-minded Latitude notebooks have always been more about function than form, but the Latitude D420 manages to pack some decent specs into a package that is both small and attractive, making this ultraportable the smallest laptop Dell currently offers. With almost a full workday's worth of battery life, the Latitude D420 stands up admirably to other similarly configured systems in its price range, such as the Lenovo 3000 V100. The 3.7-pound system has just gotten an upgrade to include Intel's Core Duo processor, and at $1,534, it's a solid choice for both consumers and small business users who need power and portability at the same time."
