    I'm pretty stoked...just ordered the Asus W3V for $925 CAD. Now wait a sec you're thinking, Asus W3V, that's mighty old. Well yes it is but I decided I don't really need the power (just doing word processing, internet etc.) and the W3J is still $1450 CAD min (and up and up to $2000.) I just don't think dual cores and a X1600 I won't use (and which sucks away more battery) can justify the $500 price difference. So as far as I'm concerned I got a beautiful high-end computer, built like a rock, for less than a grand. Can't wait for it to arrive and see what the Asus legend is all about :)

    I hope you are satisfied with your purchase.

    The W3V is a very nice computer even if it is out of its time, it will suit your needs just fine.

    Congrats. The entire W3 series has been pretty good.

    Be sure to fill us in with a well written review and pictures. ^^ (Just kidding)
