    Hi, I am wondering if anyone has used it (probably in Canada), and how it worked out. This is the EPP friends & family discount program.

    It is better than visaperks, but I am not sure how the warranty is going to work out.

    Thanks

    Yeah, well, the warranty is per machine. I am not sure if you will void it or not. Others have bought trough EPP, so they know better.

    In the meantime, it seems that Lenovo will offer customization on their Canada site.

    Oh really? I heard about that actually, but not sure when exactly... I am willing to wait if it's like next week or something, but I am definitely not gonna wait for a couple of months

    Of November? That's news to me!

    This is torture lol, I have been postponing buying for like 3 months now :(. Guess 10 days won't hurt :p

    So is it November or December 15th?

    I really want Ultralight for x61s, that's why I am willing to wait, but I hope the pricing will be fair (comparable to US) when they implement customization..
