Does anyone know or have an educated guess on how much they might cost?

I've been needing a new laptop recently but holding out for Santa Rosa, but it's getting really tempting with all the manufacturers cutting prices left and right on their current models. In particular, it seems Lenovo has a pretty decent sale going on with 50% off upgrades and ~325 off on all their Thinkpads.

But then again, the specs on the T61 look nearly perfect to me, with the Turbo Memory and 14 inch wxga+ screen.

So what do you think? At the very least, do you think I'll be able to get a T60 or Z61 at their current on-sale price in a month?

From what I've read, it might be that the new notebook prices will be about the same as the current non-discounted prices.
If lenovo is planning to discontinue the T60 then you might be able to still find it with it's discount, if it doesn't sell out by then.
