I'd also be interested in anyone's experience in this regard.
I was considering a netbook for quick viewing photos on the job, but it seems that there are none powerful enough to power Canon DPP or with an HDMI input for viewing video/photos directly from the camera.
Any information on the above would be great too. (Sorry, Jenbenn, I don't mean to hijack your thread

I just bought a Toshiba R630 with Intel i5 460M. It is 13.3 inchches and only 17mm thick at a weight of just 1.4 kg. Runs lightroom with 5DMII files very nicley. ABove all it cost just 649 Euro, which is literally half the price you pay for for fully featured notebooks of similar size and weight. Just the screen is totally crap, but then for basic edits on the road and back-ups, its totally sufficient.
