The X220 is the nicest non-Apple small laptop I've seen in a while.

It can also take an mSATA SSD, so you can load it up with a big spinning disk for media storage, and a small boot SSD for the OS/apps/etc.

Every notebook in the planet can. You don't have to a) wait the manufacturer to offer you b) pay the amount they ask

This isn't true. There are notebooks that have the slot inside but not the mSATA support.

[gcb]

didn't know that. what do they have instead of SATA?

[SamReidHughes]

It's just the usual mini PCI-something slot that would hold a WWAN card.
