Note: units are reknown for being portable, light with good battery life. Price eclipses anything I've seen on ebay. Given the X61T tablet was posted for $1599 recently, this is excellent buying if don't need or want a tablet.
These are only a fraction bigger than a netbook but offer far more performance and usability.
In case Penta don't have it, there is another one on staticice for same sort of money: http://www.staticice.com.au/cgi-bin/search.cgi?q=76734NM
If penta don't have this in stock, then it should be noted that they are annoying customers by advertising phantom units. Eg: ASUS F6VE, HP 2210B and this. The previous two bargains don't exist..

Second link on staticice, computerwholesale does not have an ETA for this and has no stock. Any reports on Penta having stock?
