    Lol, ironic that U5A looks so much like "USA" but isn't available

    But anyways...
    Whats the difference between them? Other then the webcam and the 1.8hd...

    Also... What would be the retail price of the W6A if it was available in the US?

    the U5 is more like the S5..... but why don't you look on Asus' global site and compare?

    Humm... since the W6a won't be in the US.... would it be that off to believe a price would never have been set? Are we supposed to make this stuff up?

    Then would you know how much the W5A would cost in Asia/Europe?

    I'm going to assume you mean W6a and no... but one could assume that the price would be inbetween a W5a and W3a... since similiarly configured, those notebooks are almost the same price........ the W6a should be the same as well....

    What do you mean, W5A has been in stores for a long time? It's about 1600EUR in europe, cheaper in asia. If you meant U5A it's a little bit cheaper. Or if you meant the new core duo version W5F it's about 1900EUR :eek:

    I think I'm going to jump to Asus-train very soon... :asus:
