    I'm from Catalonia (Spain). Here, Toshiba has only 3 models of the P100 series. Do you know some e-shop that delivers toshiba's notwbook to spain?

    Some models are US exclusive and you'd be better off ordering from the EU then the US in terms of warranty/shipping/customs .

    If you insist there are Ewiz.com B&H Photodigital etc. , just look at pricegrabber and then check the vendor info .

    Good luck .

    The problem is that in EU the most powerful models are not availables, and the problems with warrantys/etc... are the same between Spain - US and Spain - Other EU countries.

    I'm from Barcelona. You can go to C/Sepulveda in Barcelona near plaza Catalunya. There are some shops of computers or components. Names: PC Green, Life Informatica, Ie3 , Pc City. Look there. All have web page so you can see if they have this model.

    Upss, well I don't know if there is somewhere to shop it. Because in spain arrives all later.

    I found this:
    LIFE INFORMATICA: http://www.lifeinformatica.com/portatiles.pdf see that in toshiba there is the P100-233 but with the intel graphic card

    Ie3: http://www.ie3.com/tarifas/portatiles.pdf here is the P100-103 with the nvidia 7600 GO 256MB for 1711€

    I bought my acer in Ie3, that is near Life informatica and in front of PcGreen and the service is good.

    I bought a LG CDR in Ie3 five or six years ago, hehe. They have good prices.
    The toshiba that I'm looking for has the nvidia 7900GTX. I think that I will must to wait some months...
    In France there is a model that had this gpu. I will go to Andorra, hehe.

    Look at toshiba's web page. Probably you can find it and is possible that they have a online shop

    I searched if some shop in spain ships this notebook and only found the model with integrated graphic card or the one that has GO7600 nothing else.
    Probably this notebook doesen't ships to spain or to europe. I don't know

    I don't see any problems with buying a US model. AFAIK,Toshiba has international warranty coverage on all models.
