The new E6230 looks really nice (typing this on an E6320). The screen resolution - 1366x768 - is just not usable, though, browsing the Internet, developing in IDEs etc., is painful.

The Latitude series is really nice but higher screen resolutions are a must, even on the smaller laptops. My Samsung Galaxy Note phone has about the same resolution as my E6320 and that's just ridiculous.

    I really couldn't agree with this more. I'm now looking for a laptop and face an unfortunate decision between having a large machine which is usable for development without an external monitor (e.g. the Latitude E6530 with 1920x1080 panel) and a computer which can be readily carried about yet is barely usable in development (the Latitude E6430 with 1600x1200 panel). A higher resolution display in the 14" (or even a form factor between 14" and 15.6") would help developers immensely.
