    It's going to be up in the air...... but the best estimate is a maxed out system running about 3k.... if we're far off from that price or that configuration - the notebook wouldn't be what it's supposed to be...... which is a no compromise, performance powerhouse.... so although it's still not a sure thing - it's as close to one as we can get.

    ASUS is pretty much busy as heck right now. They just released the v6j, releasing the w2j, and will be releasing the w3j (as well as other models, just listing a few more known models).

    It will basically be a v6va thats supercharged. It will most likely have the ati x1600 for graphics, 2 gigs of ram, a 2.0 duo core, and maybe the new 160 gig hard drive. (these are all speculations, just giving you an idea).

    ASUS will most likely release the info in april after the w3j ? Plus or minus a few weeks. My guess is as good as yours.

    Purely based on Justins release dates, it looks like the W3J and Lambo will be released around the same time. Now since the W3J was pushed back that might mean the Lambo will as well but as of right now Justins sticky says W3J and Lambo are releasing in mid April.

    Well since the production dates of either have not be announced, the lambo could be released before the W3J. Basically Asus hasnt started to make either so they could make either one first. However, Im assuming that the W3J will be produced before the Lambo but like I said since theres hasnt been any production of either, either one could be made first.

    The Vx1 will NOT be released before the W3j..... or at least that's not the plan..... that's basically why the Vx1's ETA gets pushed back every day that the W3j does....

    I'm not even going to consider it, I expect the price to be around the 2800 EUR or even more in Europe. For 2600 you have a W2J here with the best configuration possible.
