6 Cell version in USA?

[lolknight]

I am a Canadian customer, but I can't stand the bi-lingual keyboard. I might go down to the states in a week or two... are there any vendors there selling the 6-cell version of the laptop? I can't find anything about it online. Any idea where I might be able to just get the US keyboard separate?

Thanks!

I have done a lot of searching and haven't found a 6 cell version in the US. Only think I can find with 6cell is shipped from Canada or the UK with that wierd keyboard. I myself am wondering when a 6 cell US version will be available, but I can not find an answer.

I have decided to give up waiting for a US keyboard, and a white AAO. I went to the store to try it out again today, and concluded that:

1. I don't EVER use left shift (weird typing habit)
2. The ENTER key is "acceptably" distanced... although a full US keyboard would've been LOADS better
3. My only reason to hold out on the AA1 now is that it is BLUE.... not a very substantial reason, considering school is starting and I wanted to get one before school starts, or I'll have to wait until Christmas...

I am gonna jump the boat and get one in the next few days

The Acer US web site only has four models listed, XP white and blue, Linux whiet and blue, all with 3 cell batteries. I strongly suspect that any 6 cell US model are still a month or more away.
