    I'd go with the slate there. No point having two ultrabooks is there? Also, the touchpads on those UX31s are meant to be awful, unless they fixed them. If you can get two of the HP Envys send one my way for being ever so helpful.

    You would think :D

    I decided on the Slate and the Envy. It did really help to have some good advice (thanks Cush, knew I could count on a C&T Reg being on).

    Now I just hope the Slate has a nice pen. It would be damn nice to have a screen thats truly drawable on. iPads were a letdown there :p

    Damn the email said
