    There are no specs officially out yet. So All what you will find here is speculations about specs and actual release dates.
    What everyone is expecting is just an identical machine with the new sonoma platform. Benifiting from faster DDR2 and improved built in graphics (due to the new chipset).
    Other than that nothing can be really said.
    Personally I cannot see fujitsu bundling much more into this machine. After all it's a business thin and light. Maybe bluetooth or support for 802.11a could be added. Nothing certain, just my speculations about things that might find their way into the S6.

    So to wait or not to wait is your call! [ :)]

    Sonoma is a Centrino platform.

    Centrino is a certification that consists of the processor, wireless card, and the chipset.
