NEW SE series coming

[eddieaus]

New SE series is coming very soon. Comes with new buttonless touchpad design, also new dock.

hmm a dock you say? a la Z series? with the usb 3.0 connection and power in one? I could see myself getting a new SE if it comes with full HD screen, no optical drive (would be on the dock) and a nice thin profile to replace my FW.

what is very soon? :P summer?

Yea! Two equally ambiguous threads about unreleased products.

Everyone play

The SE already have a dock connector, thin profile and a full HD screen... Unlike the SA it has a Synaptics touchpad too.

But it has the optical drive in the body and I don't need one, and I wouldn't mind if it was just a tad lighter than it currently is. The SE was just updated though with some new SB cpus so I shouldn't hope for a redesign anytime soon anyways, wishfull thinking.

Yeah I understand what you mean, don't use the optical drive in my SA at all. Would prefer a bit better cooling and perhaps a little stronger GPU instead. One can dream...

x2. Especially the cooling part- please, no more wailing laptop fans. And of course a screen with improved color reproduction for the 15" SE. I wouldn't mind keeping the optical drive, the computer is plenty light, thin and that leaves the option of swapping in a second drive (ssd + hdd = crazy speed and cheap storage). Or an extra mdata ssd option would be ok too.

The tiny color gamut and hot cpu are the only things holding me back from buying this computer.

Eddieaus... you're starting to sound like Beaups

Thanks for posting the pic Eddieaus! Looks nice. Looks like maybe a release not too long after Ivy Bridge is announced on the 23rd?

Do you know if the docking station has been upgraded with USB 3.0 ports at all?

Also, any changes to the screen? Will the 1080p Matte still be available? Maybe even a better version of it?

Any and all info is truly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

there you go, the new SE
