One system I found particularly attractive was the ACi Ultra-mini, mostly for its extra option for powering the laptop.
"ACi Ultra-mini - It's not clear whether the ACi Ultra-mini will be available outside of India, but I certainly hope so. This little computer features a solar panel that is suppose to help extend the machine's battery life to as much as 12 hours."
I'm going camping over Memorial Day Weekend and had been pricing portable solar panels for just this sort of purpose. If you're interested in portable solar power for your travel and camping needs, I did find one fairly good deal on a 5W solar panel, currently marked down to about $99.

Add a 12V inverter for another $20-$40 and you can take your laptop anywhere.
