Why do you limit yourself to an intel?  If your gonna do that you should wait 
for the new 486slc processor.  Gives you better battery life.  
Does it have to be a notebook?  If not, Compaq makes some pretty good
lunchbox computers that are reasonably small and have active matrix color
screens.  I think that toshiba may have a laptop in the resolution you need..
