The announcement said they would start shipping in October (next month) and expect to deliver 2-3 million units in the first year; but the "local" demand (in the Far East) is already so overwhelming that it may be a while before they can satisfy that demand and produce enough to deliver any significant number of units to the U.S. I recently bought an excellent, well equipped IBM Thinkpad for $300 and have seen several more on Craigslist, so that may be an option. --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
