ASUS U31JG

It's really hard to keep up with ASUS's models. Just recently, I wrote about the U36JC. That's not even available yet and they already have another one with better specs... the U31JG. This one has almost the same specs... 2.53 Ghz Core i3 or 2.8 Ghz Core i5, 13.3" screen with NVidia Optimus and 10-hour battery life. The 2 main differences are... the NVidia card in the U31JG is a big upgrade... The GeForce GT 415M (rather than 310M) and the max RAM is 8 GB (instead of 4 GB). The odd thing is the U36JC has a USB 3 port and the U31JG does not.

Both models trump any other laptop at 13.3", but have one very weird weakness... .3 MP webcam. Isn't that odd? All the power they poured into it and ASUS loaded the worst possible webcam. Their EEE PC line has 1.3 MP.
