    Hello and welcome to the forums :)
    Well, it's my first time seeing it.
    And since it's a Santa Rosa laptop (T7100/T7300/T7500 are Santa Rosa laptops) it must have been released recently.

    Ok!

    Actually, the only think I don't like on this notebook is the Video Card.. it's a good one but DX9c not DX10 If I'm not wrong... that's bad on a Santa Rosa notebook

    I called Lenovo Canada to ask a question regarding the N200 (will anti-glare screen be available, answer was not currently and not likely in the future).

    But in relation to this thread, both versions of the N200 are now available and in stock at Lenovo Canada.

    Grattier: I've searched high and low and no formal reviews of the N200 yet, just announcement previews. I'm looking forward to a review and hearing about any changes from the N100 line.

    I just picked up one of the N200's and it should be delivered to my work tomorow. I'll let ya know what we thing after we play some games and do some work on it.

    We payed $1294.32 US from PC Connection

    http://biz.pcconnection.com/IPA/Shop/Product/Detail.htm?sku=7630523

    It struck me as a very nice laptop for the Money! I hope it is as nice as it seems by the spec's the guy who it is going to is very picky and scrutinzes everything. This will be the third machine I have ordered for him to replace his old one that got stolen... He was also a die hard Toshiba man until the last two toshiba's I got for him. Their build quailty and design has really slid over the last few years.

    I'm using the N200 to type this now and the notebook is a lot thinner and the speakers are also more powerful :)

    Alright! That's what I wanted to hear! Those were the only 2 weak points of the N100 series.

    Thanks epictrance4life! Up for writing a review soon? :)
