    In Europre all the Qosmio models end on a 0 (X300) but in the US they end on a 5 (X305). Are we missing out on anything here in Europe or is it simply just to differnciat between US and EU models?

    Also, does anyone know the size of the Express Card slot in the Qosmios?

    /54 or/34?

    Cheers

    The european model (low end) of Qosmio is more powerful than the american, so you are not missing anything apart from some money.

    Typically, the US xx5 ending means it is a retail model, a xx0 ending means it is a direct model..

    Also the slot is is /54
