    Seeing as Danny just posted new pics of the A8JM and W3J side by side, I think It's safe to say he's got them in hand and should have them ready to ship ASAP. I'm sure you'll hear from him one way or another though very soon. Have fun with it and don't forget to let us all know what you think when you do get it. Since you're getting it from Danny, please also comment on how well the bag and sleeve he's throwing in go with the W3J, thanks :)

    Since Monday was public holiday here in Canada, we just got the shipment very late today, will start shipping tomorrow.

    Danny, will you be saving any of them as "floor models"? I'd really like to come by and check out a Working W3J when you have one set up. If yes, what location would it be at and when do you think It will be up and running? Thanks :)

    Yes, besides the W3J, A8Jm and other Asus models, we also have LG models on display, if you are talking about elegance, style, I will say LG won't be a loser.

    Markham store is better place to go, has the most display models, also Acer.

    I'm pretty sure he will, he always takes new laptops, opens them and plays with em :D

    He did that with the LG P1 and S1, I opened the S1. Such pretty machines.....$2400 CDN + taxes each lol!

    Nope, none of the stores had it in PMall, on display anyways. She wanted to get a closer look at it.

    Because she needed it ASAP, She ended buyimg a Macbook Pro at UofT's computer store. :eek:

    So there's already a working W3J model on display? I'll plan a trip this coming weekend then. Maybe I'll bring the V6V and W5a for upgrades!!! That way I can play with the W3J while I wait.

    Danny, If I come in and buy a hard drive upgrade from you, will you be able to help me instal it and transfer everything over to the new drive while I'm there? :)
