    Sager would like to thank everyone that has been waiting patiently with us, Sager has received a new NP2090 w/WSXGA+ shipment, All orders submitted on or before 7/13/2007 Without TV-tuner will be fulfilled throughout next week.

    TV-Tuner option is still back-ordered with no firm ETA of its availability. Sager does not recommended that the customer should install the TV-Tuner because it involves 4 antenna cables and a TV-Tuner data cable in a tight space.

    To prevent the risk of damaging these cables we will not ship the TV-Tuner for customer installation at a later time.

    If you need the system early as possible, we would suggest you remove the TV-Tuner option on your order.

    Hmmm, anyone know of a good USB TV-tuner? (That supports windows media center and has a remote that also supports windows media center? HDTV would also be really nice.) And yeah, what about WXGA?

    Does Sager get more machines than Powernotbooks and Xotic get for Powerpro and Force? Those were available for pre-order long before the Sagers, but Sager seems to be able to deliver faster.

    Sager was able to get these machines ahead of some of the other channels. This is exclusive to the Sager brand only.

    Donald, do you mean that the PowerPro 10:15's will be arriving in your warehouse next week, or it'll be arriving at my house next week? Early in the week? Late in the week?

    Until they are in and counted we can never be sure exactly when, or how many, are coming in next week.

    That all depends on how much WXGA or WSXGA+'s come in until your August 13 date; it's been said that shipments are more regular after this one, probably weekly, which is good. Also, we had no news whether if this shipment was all WSXGA+ or had WXGAs in it as well.

    Donald!

    What if we made the incredibly embarrassing mistake of not ordering with your company(or justins... o_O)...but from sager directly (idk somehow it worked out $$ wise)

    would you say that this shipment time could be true for me as well?

    if so, what will i do with myself after the wait is over. is there post traumatic sager wait therapy?

    edit: i will sit here and refresh until you are able to answer. dont worry about me i am in the command center.

    If you ordered a Sager NP2090 without a TV tuner, then expect your laptop to ship next week.

    :confused:
    I don't get what you're asking...the Sagers get shipped to the resellers as well as being shipped from SagerNotebook from California, everyone gets the Sagers at approximately the same time, I'd say.

    Syntax beat me to it, after the WXGA FL90 fiasco earlier this week, has Sager made sure to have the correct notebooks? Just wondering due to the reference of the "other channels"

    With all this reference to "channels" one must ask the question: What are "channels"?

    *Also hopes that TV-tuners for the wxgas will be in next week's shipment*

    "Channels" refer to "supply channels", apparently, some people got the FL-90s instead of the IFL-90 because some of the resellers had to look for more IFL-90 notebooks outside of "normal" supply channels, meaning, Compal. I'm not sure exactly what they did but by doing this, the resellers got a couple of FL-90s (the European IFL-90 model, the one with the ugly buttons and lid) and was shipped out by mistake.
