    Hello all. My 1st post here. [ :)]

    I'm very interested in M6, but like to see it in person before purchase. The problem is I can't find any store that carries any Asus laptops. Also even the number of online retailers that sell Asus is limited, and it seems they are built and customized by the stores, not by Asus, which brings up the support question. So, is there any place I can take a look at M6 or other ASUS laptops? (I'm in New York city) For those who bought Asus laptop, where did you buy it from, and did you have any difficulty when you need warranty support? Also can someone recommend reputable online stores? Thanks.

    I was looking at this (notebookreview) website when I was looking for the class M processors:
    http://www.notebookreview.com/default.aspx?newsID=1859

    (scroll to bottom) and it pointed me to this website:
    http://proportable.g2.cc/index.html

    Although Pro Portable is offering a free MyPal PDA with an L5GA purchase (details on webpage), I find the price a bit expensive for a L5GA when adding all the upgrades. Anyway, this seems like an ASUS related site and might be right for you.

    I don't know if you've already visited the asus.com site, but there's a good deal of stores listed:
    http://usa.asus.com/wheretobuy/WTB_Notebook.htm

    I am also considering a purchase on the notebook. If anyone has already bought it, I'll also like to know how it compares to other notebooks in terms of battery life and durability (I'm also thinking fujitsu lifebook or dell inspirion).
