I've been using the Sony Vaio TZ with SSD drive imported from Japan for a while now and I love it.
The battery life is a lot longer since SSD consumes less, also very quiet and doesn't get too hot.
Best of all it is quick. I don't even mind rebooting anymore.
These guys here import it, but they are a bit pricey
