    Hi.

    Both the Lenovo ThinkPad X120e and the HP DM1Z seem to fit my needs, however as far as I can tell neither are available in the UK. Does know why this is the case, whether they are going to become available soon or indeed whether either of them can be bought from a legitimate UK source now?

    Failing that, any suggested alternatives?

    Thank you.

    sometimes the release in Europe are delayed compared to say US, Japan, Canada, etc, due to the fact they are the core market for consumer goods as far as these transnational computer company is concerned. Basically you will have to be patient.

    X120e should reach UK, it is matter of time. Personally i say the X120e represents a really good buy, much more so than the DM1Z.

    Ive been looking at the X120e as well, looks perfect for me (as i don't really need the horsepower of the X220). There is no official word yet that i will come to the UK, but here is hoping!

    But i recon its going to start at around £350 then up to £600+ for the best model :rolleyes:

    Unfortunately I can't do too much waiting as I really need to get something now...
