    just chatted with HP about this specific laptop and they are now saying MID SEPTEMBER.

    Yeah, who didnt see that coming.

    Why do they ALWAYS give such details when they are ALWAYS wrong. Why not give a later date, then happily surprise everyone?

    It must not work for good business that way cause they all do the same thing.

    I want to get one of these also... I hear the nVidia Quadro M3700 is the same chip as a 9800M GTX so it should be a great laptop for gaming. Most laptops with high end graphics chips are pretty bulky (xps 1730), but the HP 8730w dimensions look nice :)
