    It's the same part! Look at the ASUS part number. It's because NCIX gets their ASUS parts from two different suppliers and they just dump the entire list on their website. You can order whichever one, but depending on the supplier it might take a while.

    Hrm... didn't see that. The price is the same, though. Generally if the price is the same, it might be a different color, though I don't believe that the W3J comes in multiple colors. One has to wonder what a W3J-4F is...

    There is also the W3v and W3a, and the Z33(im pretty sure its that one), so they need different colors (I think).
