Hardware: GMs Hummer laptop...
I'm a huge fan of the Acer Ferrari 3400 - most stable laptop I've had the pleasure of using... Seems like GM is jumping on the vehicle-inspired laptop bandwagon with their Hummer laptop... Dig the idea of integrated GPS antenna - I can always connect via Bluetooth to my Fortuna Clip-On Bluetooth GPS, but integrated is sweet ;-)

General Motors is expected to announce a new laptop next week that's styled after its popular Hummer multi-terrain vehicles.
The laptops also come with four wireless radios, including an integrated GPS antenna that helps Microsoft Streets and Trips map software locate your position and help you to your destination
The Hummer laptop comes in black and silver with yellow, red or pewter-gray trim. Its battery lasts a little more than four hours; a battery extender pushes that to about seven hours. The Hummer laptop will be available at car dealerships that sell Hummer products or online at the GM-approved Web site Hummerstuff.com starting Nov. 1.
