As much as I hate Macs the 13" Macbook looks pretty nice.
The HP Mini's keyboard is 92% of a full keyboard's size. Alternatively, you could wait a few months for more ION-enabled netbooks to come out and weigh your options after that.
Budget option: Dell Vostro 1320; which will get you a 13" 2.2GHz C2D, 4GB DDR2 RAM, 8-hour battery, NVidia 9300 for a base price of around $700... although the extra huge battery will probably make it weigh more than 4 lbs.
