I received the following directly from Garry Smith of Eurocom on 31 Oct
ETA release date is 10 Nov
The model being released is based upon the Clevo model P570WM (instead of the P270WM)
Though I can't find any info about the model on the Clevo Taiwan site, the French Clevo site has updates on it

I called this 2 weeks ago. It was obvious Eurocom were lying about it being available on the 30th October, they just make stuff up all the time.

Maybe there should be a sticky about this? -
Yeah Eurocom are pretty unreliable and inaccurate.

I am not sure they can be called lying, maybe guilty of wishful thinking. They are dependent upon Clevo to get the base product, so perhaps Clevo is not living up to their promised shipping dates.
BTW, when Garry emailed me the update, he already knew that I wouldn't be ordering until it was shipping so there was no real reason to give me a date unless they thought is was accurate
Good to know about those false Clevo sites -

It's certainly best to only give out information when you have a more reliable date, and then still issue it with a note saying it could change. Just to avoid irritation.

I have those motherboard in stock -
Just like the "coming soon" at a movie.
But there are almost always delays of one kind or another.
Right now the ETA is Nov.10-15. -

I would stick with "coming soon" until you are sure.... Prevents confusion and lets you list details.
-
Interesting when i called they said they dont have in stock and tehy would get me a Confirmation of an Order when they got them in which I never did even though I called lately to double check....who should I contact at eurocom I always been calling the Eurocom Direct Sales Number from the website?

Meaker@Sager Company Representative
Wait until everyone get's them (it will be at roughly the same time) and get it from a company who reliably posts here and will continue to help if you need it.

Clevo site now shows the P570WM and P570WM3 on their site. So it should only be a matter of a short time before Eurocom, Sager and Pro-Star have that model available
