    I would like to see a bump as I am thinking about purchasing this device in the future.

    The U110 is thinner and has a faster processor 1.6GHz L7500 versus 1.2GHz SL7100 but no optical drive and a slower, smaller HDD. Hard to say which is a better value; depends on your needs.The thermal design of the U110 is surprisingly good. Keyboard and palmrest surfaces remained in the double-digit temperature range and the bottom of the notebook barely crossed into triple digits after stressing the system by running benchmarks.

    Both of these work on mine. The camera works great, but I have to use an external microphone, as I haven't figured out how to get the built-in one to work.

    The camera uses the uvcvideo module, and it must be loaded with a parameter (quirks=2 or something like that), otherwise the video won't work.

    Try this:

    Check to see if the uvcvideo kernel module is already loaded:
    Code:
    $ lsmod | grep uvc
    uvcvideo          56990   0
    videodev          34361   1 uvcvideo
    v4l1_compat       13251   2 uvcvideo,videodev
    If it is, then rmmod it:
    Code:
    $ sudo rmmod uvcvideo
    Then, modprobe it using the quirks=2 parameter:
    Code:
    $ sudo modprobe uvcvideo quirks=2
    Now check to see that your camera is working:
    Code:
    mplayer -fps 15 tv://
    Some of this was adapted from http://bitsandchaos.wordpress.com/.
