In early September. We still got one month away, I'm also waiting for it.

you know i don't understand why both these laptops didnt come out at the same time unless the g71v will get an updated gpu, lets hope there's an expensive version that gets a 9800m gt we can only hope

By the way, both of you guys have the Intel 5100 wifi card and not the 4965 as advertised by various resellers right?

Correct. 5100.

I hope not, because the G71v will be just barely in my price range. I won't be able to afford anything more expensive.

As far as a I know, it will be around $400 more expensive and really all your getting is a 17" screen. But since I'm hardly going to carry my notebook around, I prefer this over the G50v.

well im gonna kindly diasgree well its more then a 17 inch screen remember the ddr3 people say it's not a big deal it isn't....for now but later on it will soon all ram will shift to ddr3 making ddr2 outdated so you can argue it is somewhat more future proof and this g71v supports overclocking or some crap like that and lastly up to a terabyte of space i mean you said you are getting the base model so all that good stuff may not matter though you'll still get the overclock/ddr3/bigger screen so its not such a bad deal

cant wait for this to come out in UK so i can see it in real life before buying. also i want to see the size because im tempted by the g71v.

btw in the pics, what is the "BT" thing in the wireless section

[Count Kaiser]

BT is bluetooth, I think.
