    Does anyone know of any new Asus laptops that will be coming out in the first half of next year, except for the Eee Pc? If so, is there any known speculated specs, or prices, thanks.

    I'm really only interested in ultraportables so the only model I know of is the 11.1" U2, replacement for their U1 series.

    G series will upgraded to penryn and hopefully 8800 like others , asus never release laptops with top -end card so hopefully with the sales they've made with G1 , it'll be available soon.

    Their Portable lines are great and attractive, hope newer models and refresh will improve thermal and battery life .

    I know that Asus will have the desktop replacement laptops released sometime in 2008 with desktop based X38 chipset coming out under the models: C30(13.3"), C70(19") and C80(17").
