    I know a lot of people are looking to buy SR this summer so I decided to start a list

    These resellers I know have SR notebooks for at least pre-order:
    -MilestonePC - milestonepc.com
    -G1S
    -G2S
    -F3SV-B1

    -GenTech - 1toppc.com
    -G1S
    -G2S

    I want to add the model numbers that are offered and as soon as any others have them I want to add them. If you have any info help me out!

    EDIT: Well, most of these are supposed to be out within 2 weeks and a lot of people have been asking where to get them. I haven't listed any specs or prices or anything so as not to show any sort of favoritism or anything like that.
    I figured by the time they are actually released this list would be developed. If it is a bad idea a mod will delete it I suppose.

    Milestonepc.com also sells the Asus F3SV-B1 and the C90 is no Santa Rosa laptop simply because it's using a desktop processor.

    Well, the C90S does have wireless-N and support for Robson, but it definitely doesn't have a Santa Rosa processor. It definitely uses some crazy variant on some Santa Rosa motherboard, but doesn't offer support for mobile Santa Rosa processors. I think it fits more under the category of "DX10 laptop" than "Santa Rosa laptop."

    So we're advertising for them for free?

    Well, listing them right now isn't much, the final specs, price and details are still sketchy, so until release time, calm down!
