    Haha, thanks Red_Dragon.

    This laptop has reignited my love affair with all things Lambo and Leather :)

    EDIT: I listened real closely to the german vid, and I think the VX5 will have von graphix fivegigshiezenhousen.
    Not that that helps me in any way :p

    I've got some info on the VX5, but not sure if I am at liberty to say it on a public forum. However, my " guess" at the price is more than what's mentioned in Plasma's quote ;)

    What about private messaging :).

    I'm hoping this is out by Mid April as I'm going to the US for a two week holiday. The 'early second half of 09' Aussie release is just too far away.

    Hey... April isn't a good time to come to the US... the waters aren't warm enough ;)... I'd postpone your vacation, say... another month :rolleyes: :cool:

    I'm just going to keep the Precision (for work/school) and G71G (for gaming)... The E6400 and U6V will have to go.... Don't think having 4 laptops is good for my current cash flow :eek:

    They should have gave the VX5 a cool Italian name instead of the numbering. Like Reventon :\

    laptopmag also mentions "a geometric touchpad". Huh?

    They're talking about the shape of the touchpad... look close it's got an angle towards the top.
