Was considering getting one until I found out that they go for $1000 here and thats only the X-320.

I HATE the keyboard, if I didn't only plan to use it one or two weekends a month on travel I would have sold it already.

The size and performance are perfect. The 2.5 hrs of battery life are fine.
The screen is nice.

But the keyboard sucks, I find touch typing hard on it cause the key distinction isn't so great. It also flex's a lot, hard to describe, but loud and feels very flimsy.

What's worse is the trackpad palm clicks all the time. I find it very hard to casually type on the thing, you have to constantly be aware of floating over the keyboard or you'll accidentally click while typing.]]>Jul 26th 2009 11:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/25/how-would-you-change-msis-x-slim-ultraportable-line/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/25/how-would-you-change-msis-x-slim-ultraportable-line/
Thanks, was considering one for the wife, but will keep shopping for now. BTW, how's the CPU on it feel?, decent performance?

On trackpads, personally I can't stand 'em. I'm always hitting mine on my mini 9, and before I know it, I've typed three sentances in the preceding paragraph. fortunately, the synaptics software lets me disable it.

again, thanks.]]>Jul 26th 2009 11:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/25/how-would-you-change-msis-x-slim-ultraportable-line/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/25/how-would-you-change-msis-x-slim-ultraportable-line/Jul 25th 2009 1:45AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/25/how-would-you-change-msis-x-slim-ultraportable-line/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/25/how-would-you-change-msis-x-slim-ultraportable-line/Jul 25th 2009 8:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/25/how-would-you-change-msis-x-slim-ultraportable-line/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/25/how-would-you-change-msis-x-slim-ultraportable-line/Jul 25th 2009 2:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/25/how-would-you-change-msis-x-slim-ultraportable-line/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/25/how-would-you-change-msis-x-slim-ultraportable-line/Jul 25th 2009 2:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/25/how-would-you-change-msis-x-slim-ultraportable-line/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/25/how-would-you-change-msis-x-slim-ultraportable-line/Lower price from 800USD to 500USD
Offer a Black model in stores instead of white

Really pretty simple changes with this particular unit.

Then, once the next model comes along, go ION for GFX subsystem, make battery user replaceable so we can have multiples on hand for long trips and at most increase the price 100 dollars to 600USD and they will sell a ton of them.

The choices manufacturer's make these days confound me more often than not when the obvious configurations and price points were staring them in the face from the beginning of concept. Seriously, why are we ALWAYS sitting around after the launch of new tech product asking *what would you change* about X or Y... get it right from dot!]]>Jul 25th 2009 2:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/25/how-would-you-change-msis-x-slim-ultraportable-line/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/25/how-would-you-change-msis-x-slim-ultraportable-line/And the battery is user replaceable.]]>Jul 25th 2009 2:22AM
