Hello,
I'm traveling to Canada and partly US (mainly Niagara Falls) starting from July 21st.

I saw the Toshiba R500 is slowly appearing in online shops, but what about real life shops? Malls? Does any of you guys have seen one and can kindly point me to that shop?

thanks for any help you can give me!! I'd like to come back home from my trip with this "souvenir"...

The Toshiba website shows the pre-configured R500-S5002X as intended for retail outlets. But I've searched for such outlets and not found any as yet.

If your travels take you to the Washington DC, Dallas Texas, Miami Florida, or Atlanta Georgia areas contact Richards Computer (see them on the web at www.richardscomputer.com). They are a major Toshiba dealer and have local shops. So you could phone them, make sure they can have one in stock, then see it and perhaps purchase it there. I have dealt with the Fairfax Virginia (Washington area) and Atlanta stores and found them great people to work with.
