    Any thoughts on the NW9440?

    I've seen a few magazine reviews of the NW9440, but they're never as thorough on build quality and general design as I'd like, unfortunately. Is there anyone out there who has owned, handled, fiddled with one of these mobile workstations by chance? Anyone else researching the system with any insights? I'm really torn between a NW9440 and a Thinkpad T60P, but I just don't have enough information to decide yet. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

    I'm also considering the nw9440. Hope someone responds to this thread who has one. Would love to see the screen (high res one) in person, and would like to see the build quality, etc... I'm also considering the Asus W2j if they get the WSXGA screen version in the US sometime soon.

    Yes, the W2J with the 1680*1050 screen if/when it came out would have been right up there with the T60p and the NW9440. In the end I did go with the IBM, with the higher resolution and FlexView screen being what edged it ahead, but still, I'm surprised the NW9440 hasn't garnered more attention.
