    Spoke to dynamism to try to order x505/cp. Told me sony has stopped making it. theyre expecting an improved model will be announced.
    looks like current range of x505s is at the end of its lifepan.

    Cool...machine was nothing but eye candy anyway. Now integrate a DVD-RW (CD-RW at the least) and WiFi and you'd have a serious machine that looks exceptionally good!!

    The Sony X505 is super nice. Ultra light weight, carbon composite shell *drools* Wish they had that on my Fujitsu, but always all manufacturers bring out their 1st series of machines and see how it goes, then improves on it after.

    Hi, guys, I just spoke to Dynamism after I read the above threads. Actually,tThe CP model is not really discontinnued. Just because that the price of CP in Japan is now much more expensive than before, it is difficult for dynamism to make money from CP models now. That is why Dynamism only offer the P and the SP now.

    The japanese link of CP:
