    Hey, I've been looking around on this forum for a while now... but I still am jumbled around when it comes to a listing of all the AVAILABLE and COMING SOON laptops combined. (Coming soon = within a month or two).

    I was wondering about the 14.1" or less laptops which is what I'm interested in purchasing. It can be either ensemble or built on, doesn't matter... just want a wide range to consider from.

    I know there are the W3J, Z62J, A8Jm, W5F, but what else are there? If you guys could enlighten me, that would be great. General specs would be nice too.

    I think he's referring to Asus only.

    in any case, there's the
    W7J = 13.3, Go 7400, widescreen. Ensemble
    S6F = that leather clad, 11.1" widescreen. Ensemble
    Z25F = 13.3, Built On. widescreen . probably Built On

    W3J offers the x1600 as well as the S96j (15") I think the S62J hinted by Proportable will have the x1600 also.

    Well, I have given up on Dell b/c well.. asus is something I want to try out.
    But the W7J is a late summer release... so that's out of the question. I'm looking at the Z35F which is a 13.3" version.... hope that releases soon.
