    I was checking out Amazon tonight and searched for the NC10 SE and it doesn't come up in the search engine.

    So, I went to my order page and clicked on the link there. It says it is no longer available with the following alert!

    Item Under Review

    This item is currently unavailable from Amazon.com because customers have told us there may be something wrong with it, the way we were shipping it, or the way it's described here. (Thanks for the tip!)
    We're working to fix the problem as quickly as possible.

    There's really no reason to get a NC10 SE anymore since the N110 is pretty much the same thing, so it's no loss if they dump it.

    Yeah, I agree, I sort of expected this to happen when I seen they were not getting more in stock right away. They must have done a very limited run of these SE's. Even now you still can register them or find support specific to them, though the NC10 is the same thing. Still that particular model number on the box doesn't show up on Samsung's web site anywhere.

    The N110 comes with a glossy display, while the NC10 SE comes with a matte display. Probably the only real difference. I suppose since it is a Special Edition unit, it is to be expected to be sold only temporarily.

    Well I think it was expected that they would sell more than one batch, but apparently that is it, unless they surprise us which I do not expect to see happening.

    That looks pretty good, wish it was still there.

    Get a NC10 and order a 9 cell battery from ebay or Dealextreme.com

    That will give you a NC10 SSE = Super Special Edition.

    The NC10 display has better contrast and viewing angles than N110 and is better suited for outside use.
