    Are you serious Roweraay?

    "4:15 p.m. PST Wednesday, Jan. 6"

    The Samsung conference is at 2:00 PM PST. After 4, you can commence your dissappointment if it doesn't happen.

    From Panasonic I hope to see the successor to the ZS3 camera. Mine broke and I won't pay the $200 they want to fix it when its successor is due out this month.

    Sony has begun, see nothing from Panasonic.

    The price and specs of the CW are pretty good. I just thought it was going to get the nvidia 330 instead of the GT310. BTW what is the 310 a rebrand of?

    I will admit their pricing seems pretty competitive for the specs that come with it. I also notice the CW gets an i5 but the rest of the specs are still a bit unknown.

    Yeah, exactly...Where is the PineTrail based P? All the other manufactures refreshed their netbooks with the PineTrail platfrom. Why Sony didn't do it as well? I have no words, I know a lot of people that was waiting the PineTrail refresh to buy the P.

    hm...arent pinetrain netbooks going to be a bit later? Like in march or april? if so..sony have plenty of time.

    but then again, sony is usually not the one that puts new techology into their products right away, unless they design it, so i guess first P models with pinetrain (IF) during the summer.

    most of "normal customers" dont even tell the difference betwen pinetrain and other platforms so they will not even see it.
