    Hi guys,

    I was wondering why all the U36SD's are discontinued. Is there a successor? I'm in the market for a new notebook and this seems to fit my needs. I was thinking of getting the Sony SA, but the build quality is horrible.

    Thanks!

    i believe there is a new model being release soon. It is the u44sg if i am not mistaken. It is basically a 14.0" screen in the u36 chassis (which in my opinion is just awesome) and has an upgraded cpu/gpu. Possibly ivy bridge cpu

    Do you know when this is coming out? How about the price point?

    My hand is just itching for it...
