i realized the centrino 2 has been released and i need a laptop for school, and i need it before 8/20

i was gonna buy a m1330 but saw the announcement so are there any similar sized laptops right now with the new centrinio 2 setup?

if not should i wait?

Check out either xoticpc.com or powernotebooks.com both off good products and are reliable. I've gotten a laptop from Xotic and it still works great.

I'm personally waiting for the new Lenovo IdeaPad (Y530). However, the Toshiba U405D 13.3" at Best Buy is kinda calling my name. :)

I'm also waiting for dell refreshes for the centrino 2 processors. I hope we don't have to wait tool long because I have school coming up in September

They should be updating soon enough. IIRC, a new series of latitudes will be rolling out (the E- series).

Agreed, but doesn't Montevina also include higher FSB Penryn processors, plus support for DDR3?
