So that what Acer was up to...

[flamingswrd]

After a quick check at Circuit City's website to see if any more price drops occurred, it was no longer there! I checked Acer's website and they have added more models....the downside? All of the new models and colors are all WinXP models with 6 cell batteries (Battery=Good, Windows=Evil). Linux models are resigned to blue and white with only a 3 cell. What kind of contract did Acer sign? :cry:

Whole bunch of new SKUs at Acer/US too, confirms your find:

C/P for your convenience:

(black/brown colors are 160GB.XP ONLY!)

I think we are about to see Linpus thrown under the bus....

In the UK it seems to be a bit different. All Linpus versions come with a choice of 4Gb or 8Gb SSD or 120Gb HDD, with 512Mb of RAM. XP Versions come with 120Gb HDD and 1024Mb RAM installed. The only colours at the moment are Blue or White and no large battery is available that I can find, other than as an accessory.
