x61 vs x61s

[blipblop]

Hi guys, I'm really looking to try and pick up an ultra portable in the next couple of days. My choices are narrowed down to these two...

What makes the x61s hundreds of dollars more than the regular x61? I can't seem to find it and on the site it just says some different hardware? or something I have no clue. Thanks

Best as I can figure, the x61s is designed for huge battery life (ULV processors, lower power consumption on the screens... you get the idea) or at least better battery life than the standard x61.

With the x61s you get an s....which is just s more than x61.... it's like 33% more...

The X61s is SLIGHTLY thinner and lighter than the X61 and, as mentioned previously, has great battery life, etc thanks to the ULV processor. Personally, I'd go with the X61 regular since you get an already thin and light notebook with a top of the line C2D processor.
