    Hi. I was wondering if anyone knows when the new AR series available in Japan will be available in the US. I am talking about the 2.4Ghz SR AR series with Vista Ultimate and the customize options.There are some customize options on the US store but they do not include the Santa Rosa core. The only thing SR related to AR series is the 2Ghz pre-configured one on the US store and the 2.2Ghz pre-configured on the UK store. Any ideas, insights? Thanks.

    I just got a catalog from them that says the AR series is going through an update. Possibly there will be SR models available at all speeds soon?

    Hopefully it will be soon. I checked in the manuals section of sony usa and there are specs listed for models not appearing on the website like AR570,AR550 etc so they must be updating. Give all the customization options from the Japanese store please!
