    Hello folks, I was waiting more the G73jh perhaps most of you folks. Because of Czech Republic's some kind of problem with Asus. Couldn't find any word to them ( They said original, G73JH-A1 will come on 23.3.10, after a while, another electronics selling company mironet.cz said lots of ETAs which was totally wrong. For example they said it will come on Friday or next week sometime which i don't believe.) but, after that, they stopped giving informations about ETA of G73JH. However the guy at asus.as, said there will be a model by next week ( which i don't really believe again) with downgraded by resolution. The model has 1680x1050. I haven't used any resolutions that high, so wanted to ask to you folks. Is it worth to wait for Full HD one by middle of April, or buy the 1680x1050 px downgraded one by next week??
    And i have 1 more question. Some of you should know how it works from previous experiences. How come, when they give some wrong ETAs and after that gives another ETAs and lies to customers sometimes? I mean if you do this product, you have date to put them all to the cargo. And cargo has calculated time to bring a particular point. I don't understand when they say, it will come at 23.3 after that morning of 25.3 after that middle of April.

    Hey man, The 1680x1050 resolution will still look pretty sharp. I personally game at 1280x720 so that I can bump up the details and what not. If 2 weeks is too long for you, I dont think you will be dissapointed with the downgraded resolution. Not sure about the lying to customers, I guess they just do their best to estimate.. its not a perfect world though =). Hope this helps.
