Swsusp approaches readiness
It is really the time for the big Linux distributors like Red Hat or SuSE to bring support for laptops. If these vendors (who do huge patches on their kernels anyway) would support SW-SUP, a large user base would use and test it therefore make it more usful in a shorter time.
I own a DELL Inspiron 8500 running Red Hat Linux 9. It took me quite a while to get it to work with ACPI, as Red Hat provides nothing there. Without the work on Linux for Laptops I wouldn't have the simplest support probably.
