I just got a ThinkPad X230 with an IPS screen and an i7 CPU for 180 euros. It's the last one with a non-ULV CPU, which means it's still quite fast. And it all works perfectly, except maybe the bluetooth and fingerprint reader. With a 9-cell battery you'll get easily enough hours of usage, with apmd I'm clocking around 5-6 hours, which is fine for my use.

Openbsd does not support Bluetooth
Mmmmmh... Using Linux and 9 cells (92wh), my x240 runs for about 12 hours.
