Loved the photos. One question, though: if I buy the computer in Poland with XP Home Edition in Polish installed , will I be able to change the language to English? Someone told me i would need to get something else (some software or application, I guess)in order to do that. Do you what that is and if it's free? (If I have to pay more I might as well buy it outside Poland with XP Home Edition in English and solve the language issue) Hi,

To get more from your battery try undervolting i.e. with RMClock utility. Instead of buying 3G modem consider getting 3G phone with modem capabilities (by BT or USB cable).

I've bought it for 1500 PLN (about 700 USD) with additional 1GB of RAM. Keyboard is a standard QWERTY, without any national characters or strange changes. Windows is in Polish national version though.

I'd love to pick one up myself. I'm actually going to Poland in a few days.. Is it for sale in stores, or just online? How much is it in Poland? There is no official price point set here in Sweden yet, and it won't be introduced until september or something like that - bah! Actually considering to buy it abroad, and Poland is as good a choice as any, right? You don't have any extra funny characters on your keyboards, do you? We're as ignored by distributors as you are by the way... We're a smaller country alright, but none the less - it's mean! Anyway, great post! Nice little first-look review.
