    I hear plenty of mention on here of US sites/companies that sell Asus laptops, but my searches have revealed very few places in the UK that sell them and actually have them in stock.

    Specifically, I am (or at least will be, when they are released) looking for a Core 2 Duo (Merom) W3J. 2GHz+, upgraded to 2GB of RAM and anything from an 80GB HDD upwards, as well as the larger capacity main battery + optical bay battery.

    So, can anyone point me in the direction of a good, reasonably priced online retailer in the UK that would also do the upgrades and sell the extra batteries? How much is this spec likely to cost?

    All your help is greatly appreciated.
