both are outdated models .....UL30has ul30jt with i5 most probably and nvidia310m+optimus and timeline has been replaced by TimelineX 3820TG arrandale i7-i5,5650/5740 with ATI switchable graphics 6-8hr backup . but if its in between the two it would definitely be ASUS and from what i have read its available for around $700 and it was launched at much higher

asus sure seems better with bigger battery and the ability to tilt more than 110deg. but the question is availability in india at that price.

i asked KMD for a quote it was 5-6K +US price ... i have decided the timelineX but most launches are being delayed as arrandales are short in supply

just to update. i finally managed to get my hands onto a asus ul30a-x5k from amazon.com and it sure is everything it claims to be but for the battery claims... i am very happy to have waited and bought this instead of the acer timeline...
