Seems like it has some nice attributes. Have to wait for some reviews of course. Obviously its relatively thin, at least on the bottom (the screen looks a bit thick, but maybe thats just the ridiculous bezel--guess no LED backlit display on this one).
It has a combo eSATA/USB port, and all the ports appear to be in good locations. Good keyboard. Nice trackpad and buttons, though the lack of multi-touch might be a deal breaker.
Presumably the materials will be impressive, though they just look like plastic in the photos, so we'll have to see. Sounds like the magnesium allow might just be on the inside bottom frame, and all the stuff you see is just plastic...
Can't tell what the upgrade options are... no access from the bottom that I can see, other than that what? business card holder?
Sounds like a Gobi-based flexi-WWAN is going to be an option. A mini-PCI card? Something else?
Doesn't say anything about 802.11n so presumably just the usual 802.11b/g. Big deal.
I guess the speakers are arrayed along the front edge? Hard to tell exactly. Hopefully something half-decent.
The four cell might be a nice option. Doesn't say its lithium polymer. So it probably isn't.
The X-Fi3 keeps with the company's commitment to audio fidelity, thanks to the apt-X codec, which supposedly offers audio quality similar to a wired connection when streaming. On that front, the device also handles FLAC files.
