    Just contacted one vendor and was told it will not be available till June/July, and B1 will not be available till end of year. Disappointed. I am afraid when it comes out, the species could be long away from the competitors except the tough fact.

    By the way, i just upgraded a SSD for CF-W8. Anyone know how to find the bios to unlimit the SATA port? There was a Japanese special version of CF-W8 which used Intel SSD.

    I got the Plextor PX-M3S 128G for $145. Seems a good deal to me.
