    As I was reading through the forums about the W3J, I came across a number of owners who had initial issues with their power management, battery switching, and other problems etc.

    Personally, I'm very thankful that my W3J has not had any problems with coming out of Standby and/or Hibernate. I do not have the extra slim fit battery so I cannot attest about battery switching issues.

    So my question is if you own or have owned a W3J, did you have any problems with it initially? If yes, what was the exact problem and how have you fixed the problem? This is hopefully meant to give a clearer picture of just what percentage of W3J had issues. Please list when you bought your laptop and what version was it (i.e. the originial W3J or the ''refreshed'' W3J).

    Let me start off as I purchased my refreshed W3J on July 12, 2006 and have had no problems with it at all so far.
