I think a netbook is the best way to go.
I carry a full size (14") laptop - weighs in about 6 lbs with case and AC adapter. Seriously thinking about downscaling to one of the netbooks. Would love to get by with just a tablet (IPad/Android) but don't think those are quite there yet for everything I need/want to get down on the road (e.g. bidding with Easy Bid). Also like to carry a nice mix of movies/music and they fit quite easily on a netbook or a laptop. Macbook Airs are nice BUT like any Apple Product (even refurb) very expensive.
