    I'm not sure if there are any, but if anybody knows if there are, please let me know. Those which could be customised would be preferable, but so long as the reseller is located in Australia, then I'd be willing to give them a look.

    Or better yet, is there anywhere overseas that will let me purchase and customise the laptop, but will not deny my credit card as a payment option? Or will I find this type of thing everywhere I go?

    errm, well dick smith electronics does in New Zealand, I dont think our branches do over the ditch though :( but you could buy online from NZ if you were desperate, we do the 24 month warranties on all the models.

    Anyone know of any other Australian Asus resellers that operate within Queensland perhaps? Also, I am looking at the Asus W3V as the laptop to get, so it would be great if the reseller sold this as well.

    Thanks
