Core2Duo T1?

Will there be a core2duo version of the T1 anytime soon? I wanted to buy the 1.83 T1 now but i m worried that there will be a core2duo version soon.

 

No details on when manufacturers are going to release Core 2 Duo notebooks. Asus has been the only one who has formally done it, and Sony and Dell have informally done it (through pre-orders and 'false' teases on their sites).

I think Core 2 Duo will not appear in notebooks until after Labor Day, when companies can have a big sale and get rid of older stock

 

True. So far LG havent announced one yet. So I guess I will keep looking for the T1. Notebook Outlet in Pacific Mall is selling them for $1799 + tax before $100 rebate...I am looking for arounfd $1600...

 

Not sure about the T1, but LG told us the S1 would have Merom in by this September.

 

I heard that sept there will be duo core 2's in a bunch of the LG's, and was pretty i remember being told they would appear in the T1...

but we'll see! wait till the announcements in sept before buying an LG, for sure though. They will be putting the DC2's in existing models.

 

ic, thanks fro your advice ^^

 

Is it safe to say that with core2duo it will have longer battery life ?

thats the only thing holding me back from getting a T1

 

well, i've heard that a retailer (3 days ago) has already heard that they were to be introducing core2duo laptops so it shouldn't be that far off i hope.

 

So any new on Core 2 Duo for the T1 express???...they put the chip for the S1 how bout the T1!!!!!!

 

who cares about a core 2 duo in a T1..LG needs to do something about the horrendously slow 1.8" hard drive first. Any application or task i try to do on my T1 is bottlenecked by the poor disk IO performance. For example, my outlook.ost file is only about 600mb and outlook takes atleast 1-2 minutes to load and become usable (the hard drive activity LED is lit the whole time). I'm sorry if I seem like I am ranting. I hate my T1 and can not wait until Hard Drive manufacturers come out with some faster 1.8" drives.

 

all i know is i want one!

wat would be another good option for an ultra thin portable merom laptop?

 

u can always try asus.

I am glad that there is no core 2 duo T1 so far

 

I just ordered the P1 core2duo today. So far there isn't a T1 core2duo mentioned. The T1's so sexy lookin though

 

yip thats why i bought it without waiting haha too sexy ^^

 

I'm not sure about the T1, but LG is supposed to release a new R1 series (14.1" screen) by late September.

 

yah you're right, i saw the R1 listed at the reseller i bought from, the price was pretty good as well.

 

S1 core2duo will fly

 

I had a meeting with LG Canada notebook chief yesterday in our new show room in Markham Ontario ( will open in two weeks, see the attached photos ), some news to share with you guys:

1. We will start shipping S1-M002A2 the first week of Oct.;

2. We will start shipping S1-P402A9 early next week;

3. The new C2D T1 will be here end of Oct. under my sugestion, the chief agreed to use WXGA+ screen on this model.

 

cant wait for S1

 

This is great. Which C2D will it have? Any other improvements?

 

with the new c2d t1... will LG improve on the 60 gig 4200 hardrive?? i hope they put at least a 100 gig

 

it's possible, but intel announced that the core 2 duo merom chips wont be out till jan 2007

 

I think you mean the Low Voltage Merom CPU's.

 

yah the low voltage ones are out in 2007. Merom's already here. I have one right now.
