    I think most of us agree that in the near future, probably before the end of the year, the M17x or the name will change to M17x2 or something will have the i7 CPU. I hope it will come with a Intel chipset rather than nVidia. Does anyone here know for sure yet? We can see potential problems with the nVidia chipset on THIS THREAD FOR ONE.

    I highly doubt it that it will happen this year. Even Chaz came out and said there were no new rumors of any notebook being released. Expect it some time in the Spring. Late Winter if we're lucky.
