    Hi - does anyone know of a good Asus reseller in Australia? (Melbourne, specifically)

    I'm keen to try to get in line for a w3j if/when they are for sale here, and I thought it'd be worth hassling local vendors to see if they know about release dates, preorder options, etc...

    p.s. I'm looking to salary sacrifice, so overseas vendors are of no use to me...

    update: don't bother, I've just found out the w3j doesn't have a pcmcia slot, which is a show-stopper for me - I'm going to have to go to some other brand.

    Gotta love that planned obsolescence - the minute a new spec is out, new hardware stops supporting the old spec - no matter how much money people still have invested in it...

    i recommend i Store in 388 lonsdale street for ASUS. That's where i got my V6J. They were the only one to have it in stock. And they gave me a good price for it AUD$3130 where everywhere else is selling it for $3500 o_O
