    Any word on when these cards will become widely available on the US market? I only know of one notebook (Rock Xtreme CTX) that has a MR X1800 inside. Or are they just going to remain MIA forever like the Mobility X800 series?

    Also, does anybody have any info on when the X1900 will be released for notebooks to counter the Go 7900 series? It would be much appreciated.

    No info on the X1900; there's a Fujitsu Amilo Xi that has the X1800. The Clevo M570U, commonly rebranded as the Rock Xtrme CTX and Sager NP5760, is the only notebook I know of with the X1800XT.

    Cards like X1800XT, X800, 9800 are premium video cards for notebooks. Just a few brands use them for their Desktop Replacements (DTR). So dont expect ASUS or Acer to use them in their notebooks.

    X1900 wont come out I think... We are still waiting for the announced X1700 mobility.
