    It's technically "released" but only on paper right now, the first lineup of actual notebooks don't have a firm release date. That lineup includes the two Acer Ferrari models, one is a 15.4" with an X1600 the other is an ultraportable, and then an ultraportable from MSI.

    What about sagers? Are they releasing any soon? Their 19"er would be much sweeter with the x2

    Wow, this Asus looks like it has everything I have been looking for in a laptop, 64-bit, DVI, 7600 over x1600, and BlueTooth. Hopeful the screen is going to have a WSXGA+ option, though. Do have any dates?
