Default Which Laptop for under £500

I am a sales rep and spend most of my time on the road. I am looking for a replacement for my current desktop with is a p4 3.0 g 2 gb ram etc.

I need it to be able to connect to the internet wireless but i will also be getting a usb dongle for the internet.

I have had a look at dell and they seem quite good but not quite sure what spec to get.

I was looking at core 2 duo would i notice the difference between 1.8 & 2.00g. Should i go for 2mb cache instead of one and what does the 800mhz means i have seem some with 633mhz would i notice a big difference in speed.

I take it i should also go for at least 2gb ram and a 160g hard drive if its going to be running vista.

Thanks for the help.

anywhere else worth looking

If you can stretch your budget a fraction then this is a very well loaded laptop, apparently that seller on ebay is one of the best.
