    Is anyone going to this event? It would be nice to get some information about the W3's arrival in North America and what the estimated price will be.

    Oh wow... they're having a product show at NCIX!
    I know where that is... I bought a few things from there before.
    Weird though.. the store isn't very big.

    I think I'll check it out [ :D]

    It was disappointing.
    They had a Z71A and a A6BNe on display... along with an M5Np.
    Nothing out of the ordinary...

    Yeah, they said it'd be available during Q2 of this year...
    Oh well, I'm in no rush to get a W3. Plus, it should be hella expensive...
