    When I first searched for a new laptop in March, I wanted the Acer Travelmate 6460-6263/6752, so I saved up, and looked for it, but all sellers were out, so I looked around and found out about it's replacement, the 6592. Unfortunately, though it seemed like a pretty solid contender, it originally had the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2300, a budget R600 graphics card with only Direct X 9.0c capability. It also was only available in Canada and Europe, so I gave up on that notebook and ordered a Lenovo Thinkpad T61p last weekend. Just a few hours ago, I looked at the 6592 site for a change, and I saw that it is now equipped with the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2400 XT, a low range DX 10 capable card... This has led me to ask two questions:

    Will the Travelmate 6592 be available in the USA anytime soon, and if so, which graphics card will it use?
