    Huh, that looks fairly legitimate. Are there any reviews of that retailer online?

    It does have a 9 out of 10 on ResellerRatings.com: NCIX.com Reviews - ncix.com Ratings at ResellerRatings

    I'm a bit of a way before I can get this laptop, but seeing the 8870M is very promising.

    It's still pretty crazy how the 8870 adds ~$400 to the price. For most people it probably isn't worth it. I doubt it would for me if I were to get it.

    Well, aren't the price difference about the same for the 8870M outside the US? I'm hoping that more vendors will be able to have this by the holidays, too.
