    Yea, actually, thats pretty accurate. the W7J split the difference in size, weight, graphics power, and on battery life as well, I think.
    Asus keyboards in general feel very nice, not thinkpad quality, but well above HP Dell, Gateway, etc.

    Every keyboard from the W5 up is considered "full size" and although the W2 has a bigger overall keyboard, it's only because all of the keys are full size, where as the W5 has full size letter and number keys....... but comfort from there up is the same.

    Patiently waiting for some reviews myself as well. I'm in no rush to buy it but will be bought by the end of the summer just in time for school again.
