Sounds like you want an Apple Powerbook.
You'll probably have a hard time finding all that in a PC laptop.
Particularly the DVD-R. I don't believe IBM has a laptop DVD-R. You
could get an external one though. Firewire is still fairly uncommon.
The T40 doesn't have it. I believe the R40 and A31p do though.
Bluetooth is often an option. Seriously though, for all that you ask
for, the powerbook is a great choice.
