ASUS announced U36 model notebook

[temptemp]

saw it at $1398 for 750GB hdd at Funan roadshow last weekend.
Is this a reasonable price?

cpu is i5 series
didnt take note of the battery cell type.

that is the standard price of retail set, should come w 8 cells battery, 4GB ram & 2 years warranty. only those sets redeem fr Starhub c/w 4 cells battery, 2 GB ram & 1 year warranty.

Ok noted with thanks.
Tot the roadshow was offering a good deal.

Maybe will wait for coming IT show in June.

Hi, anybody knows if the U36JC is on SATA-II or SATA-III interface?
As I understand the HDD is SATA-2 500GB (Starhub set).

I've a spare C300 128GB SSD which I initially intended to install into the U36JC.
However, if it does not support SATA-3 then I might be looking to get the Intel 320 160GB SSD instead since will not reach the full potential of C300.

Already tried googling but can't find useful info on this.
TIA.

anyone got this model at PC show?
How is it?
