First announced by HP back in January the Pavillion DV2 series has been available locally for some time now. This ultrathin AMD NEO powered laptop can be considered a direct competitor with the Acer Timeline series with a slight advantage of a discrete graphics card.
There are two models, the one with the integrated ATI Radeon X1250 graphics (DV2-1010AU) and the one with the 512MB discrete ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3410 graphics (DV2-1003AX).

Both weigh at 1.65kg and 1.73kg (as heavy as the Acer Timeline), respectively and the DVD actually comes as an external accessory and not built into the system.
Again, my interest lies around the performance of the Athlon Neo 1.6GHz compared to say an Intel Atom N280 1.66GHz or even a Core 2 Solo 1.4GHz.
