    That's great! Looking forward to your review. A couple requests though, if you don't mind. If you could try a battrey test and also check out how warm it gets, that'd be great. Those were the big issues with the W3V; it got too hot during GPU/CPU intensive stuff (like gaming) and also battery life was significantly less than 3 hrs (and far less than the mfr's rating of 4-5 hrs, no surprise there). The W3J has a faster (though possibly underclocked) GPU and apparently the same battery, so this worries me. Thanks.
