    I just want a V6j with a fast video card inside. I don't care if it's widescreen or if they even have to make it thicker. What's the holdup? Is this the plan with the V2 I heard about?

    V1J, thread here. It's widescreen, thicker, and heavier but with more features. So not really like a V6 with a fast video card but the closest thing.

    The V1 is certainly not a replacement for the V6........ something in that range will come later. The V1 is a mix between the V6 and the W1, but a lot more W1 than V6..... as it's size is pretty close to W1 numbers....

    If referring to the Vx2 which will be a lambo branded model.... that's still in the design phase and no one has seen that..... but it's not going to be indicative of a successor to the V6 just because the Vx1 is using the V6 chassis.... The lambo line is going to go off in it's own direction.

    However, don't worry..... something will come along as an update to the V6.... just hold out as long as you can.
