There are a few gripes: 1. No PC Card/PCMCIA slot!? With the growing popularity of cell cards for highly mobile people, what were they thinking... ditch the stupid photo card slots for a PC Card slot! 2. Terrible touchpad design. There is no ledge between touchpad or either button.. difficult to tell where you are by touch. Personally, I think the x300 was a better overall design. It was slightly heavier, but weight was well-distributed and hardware design was better. I have the X1… it is light and mostly nice. There are a few gripes:
