    There is a CNET (AU) review on the W3V that was released today.

    http://www.cnet.com.au/mobilecomputing/notebooks/0,39029089,40055146,00.htm

    Interesting, but nothing new... I thought some of you might want to read it.

    I'm just hoping the Aussie version uses the same colour scheme as the one pictured in that article.

    Apart from that there's no chance of the $4000+ price tag touted there. I'm also pretty sure that it won't be customisable without loss of warenty. Also as previously reported the specs will be a 1.86GHz processor (not 2.1GHz) and a 100GB 5400rpm hdd (not 80GB).

    I'm still wondering why Asus doesn't make a mirror immage of the current design and put the heat vent on the left side.
