    I am a fiend for good looks, especially in my electronics. However, this beauty is too expensive for my taste. :(

    wow... that's expensive. for that sort of price, I would want the following features on that NB
    1. it's made from carbonfiber (not just the led)
    2. 160 GB hard disk
    3. an HDMI output
    4. HD DVD/ Blue-ray DVD burner

    I know some of the above features are not avaiable on any NB yet. and may not be coming out this year.
    but unless Asus is offering some unique features on their Lambo range, I don't think many people are going to be prepared to pay the price.

    I'm currently considering a W2j, but these are either looking awesome.
    These are 15.4'' right instead of 17''?
