Can hardly wait till tomorrow 22 March 2010.

I hope Acer announce this tommorow as widely speculated by various websites....

The prices of the 13.3" and up timelines are up but no signs of 1830T yet. I wouldn't keep my hopes up :/

Where are they? I'd like to see how they compare to the current Timelines to gauge a guess for the 1830T.

see the official acer arrandale timeline thread. I say around $600 for the 11.6"

do you guys think this will be able to play hulu properly without breaks when connected to the internet wirelessly. Also how will this pc play hd movies, i.e. 1080p.

no problem at all.

edit:
i wonder if there is a way to leave Turbo boost on to keep the CPU at 1.8ghz and the GPU at 500mhz while connected to a power brick.

is the acer 1830t better than the asus ul20 in terms of performance, battery, etc..

Yes. Better batter, Core i5-520UM much better than Core 2 in the UL20, no bluetooth in the UL20, 1830t weighs more than 1lb less.

So hyped for tomorrow, Acer do not disappoint! I expect the 1830t to cost $600. No more.

Twice as poweful as the previous gen 4500 graphics. And the HM55 is the chipset, the graphics are "Intel HD graphics".
