Get this:

Samsung NP300E5V-A03IN Laptop (3rd Gen PDC/ 2GB/ 500GB/ DOS) - Samsung: Flipkart.com

Comes with a ULV 3rd gen Pentium dual core processor and packs more than enough punch for all the work described by you.
Its efficient as well considering the ulv processor.

HP Sleekbook b003tu - 2gb/500gb/Pentium Dual Core (2nd Generation) 987
-slim
-lightweight
-gorgeous

-no dvd drive
-has usb 3.0

and
"the Pentium 2117U is 16% - 21% faster than the 987. This result can be considered good if we take into account that the 2117U operates at 20% higher frequency than the 987, and that the performance could be limited by other system components, which we assume were identical for all tested processors."
