So basically, a netbook right?
I'm using a lenovo S100, and I'm really happy with it. It's specs are right on the line of what you need to play 1080p though, so if the codec requires an above average amount of work then it can stutter.
There is a pretty good price drop on most netbooks now that ultrabooks are around - I got my S100 for $250.

I recently got a Toshiba Satellite C650 for around Ѓ228. It's been a very great laptop so far.
I take it to my classes nearly every day, and it's great for movies and stuff; plus it can run some low-end games well.
The specs are pretty good.

Sorry, I forgot to say that I wanted at least 4Gb of RAM.
This Toshiba Satellite C650 looks nice, but They don't produce them anymore.
Lenovo s100 would be good but it has only 2Gb of ram and I cba to add another 2 Gb myself.
I was thinking of either of these.

Sorry for Finnish Language. You can probably use Google translate to understand all the text well enough.
Added this info to the first post.

I really like thinkpads, good choice. It's twice the price of our suggestions though :P
Comparing the specs makes me question the price though. But thinkpads have great build quality.
