    I recently read from a finnish forum an answer written by a Zepto's employee which answers a question made by some lad in that forum. He asks if there are plans for 17" models and a nickname called exehh says that they'll come in a couple of months. The particular answer is dated 31.5.2007.

    I don't know much about that nickname or it's user, but it seems that he has an email adress: [email protected]

    So, i thought to ask Rene, Iann or toffen about these particular plans. (of course everyone who might know something are welcome to speculate & speak up)

    Does Zepto have plans for publishing 17" models in near future?

    Not that I know off, but then again we don't really get information about this until the models have been selected by the people who select which models we are to sell, and when they have a release date.
    Basically i can't confirm or deny this information.

    If it is true though this is not good for the particular employee as we are not allowed to "leak" this kind of information because we are listed on the danish stock exchange.

    Nah it's not gonna get him fired, but we are told not to bring information like this on to the customers when we are on telephone support, as information like this is insider information until a public annoucement/press release has been sent out :)
