2 new Antec cases

Hi, I'm not sure if this is old news or new news, but I can't find any thread on them when I did a search. So, just want to say that I noticed the announcement of a couple of new Antec cases over the weekend: the Antec P160 "Performance One" case and the Antec Super Lanboy case. Here are a couple of links:

I must say, I quite like both of them. Too bad I probably can't afford both. 😛 The P160 will likely be the one I'll look more into.
 
If the P160 comes with those stealth cd drive covers and in black it might be a possibility for my next case. I just can't stand shiny things in the room while I try to sleep or watch TV.
 
By "shiny things" do you mean the silver case, or the LEDs on the drives? I was scoping those stealth drive covers and my guess is that the long horizontal stripe is a translucent window to allow the drive's LED to show, no matter where it's located.
 
I've been looking for a new case with 120mm fans to try to quiet my system. This looks like it might be it. Found a site (don't know anything about this site) that has it up as a pre-order for $121.

Antec P160

This site in Australia also shows it and says it will be available the end of September.

Wow. This thread's been around awhile..can't believe I missed it!

I read this:

Made from anodized aluminium, the case includes a swivelling front panel with LED temp readouts, FireWire, USB and audio ports, 10 drive bays, a removable motherboard tray, blue LEDs and a washable air filter.

and immediately said "holy crap, they're going after Lian Li!" :Q

This new case is not as "beautiful" as the Lians, IMHO, but it does come with all the bells and whistles. IMO, just adding a removeable mobo tray puts it in another class of case completely.

When I read this from the aforelinked page, I was LMAO:
"The included audio controller lets you trigger the lights with sounds from outside your case, so you'll be treated to a vibrant lighting display synchronized to "Saturday Night Fever." (Or any other music you desire. Just as long as it isn't Yanni.)"
😀
 
I can't believe I missed it either. Finally a good looking Antec case without a door! 😀 Anyone else think the P160 looks like the Coolermaster Centurion?
 
are there any more pictures of the interiors? I was hoping Antec would release a aluminum version of the Sonata or SLK3700BQE, and these look like they could be it.

edit:found a side picture of the P160 at Toms Hw. Just scroll to the bottom of the page
