    Now that Asus has put into production the W3J, is P1 planning on releasing a model based on that, or any new portables in the near future?

    There is one coming soon based on the 13.3" Z35f.

    I am sure they will be introducing a full core duo line eventually as the Asus core duo models start to become available.

    Can't find a 13.3 Z35f anywhere. Is this model out or about to be released? How does it differ from the W3J? I don't need to buy until the summer and I'm very interested in P1's transreflective screen.

    It's not out yet. Expected mid-March. I know the ETA already passed ... but hopefully it will be here soon. I am waiting for it

    This is a mini review that Eddie (@ G2P) did for the Z35a click here
    The Z35f will most likely resemble this to a great extent other than core duo

    Note Z35a was never released in the US

    Yup. Believe they said the new model will be designated the SX. They are also introducing a 17" (not sure which model it's based on. Z83?) called the FX that's supposed to be really hot.
