I want a Samsung P2. Look better than the M7 will be, looks nice, bigger screen and it's out no - so no delays!!! (and it's got bluetooth)

Those P2's really have to get a bit cheaper out here in the EU. Not noticing anything here from the low euro-dollar rates....which is kinda crappy.

I know, I wish I could find it in white here in the U.K.

I'm currently in love with the new Thinkpad X300 from Lenovo :D

Other than that, I'm following the M8 news with enthusiasm and hope that it will be as good as it seems. And in that case, I hope that it will be available here in Europe.

yeah the X300 looks nice, I think the Vaio's win on battery life though. I did like the P2 also when it first came out but they still haven't released a 16gb version and they are a little pricey. Considering samsung provide so many companies including apple and meizu with thier flash memory I cannot even start to understand why they are being so bloody stingy on the capacity front. I also think the screen is a bit to small for enjoyable movie viewing and it lack file support for xvid which is a bit annoying. I doubt I will be buying a new media player before the M8.

I am completely uninformed about the current Vaio's, but if they beat the X300's up to 10 hours of battery life, then I'm awed.

I would go for an Eee PC Desktop ( Eee Site: Asus EP20: First look at the Eee PC desktop ) + Eee PC 900/ECS G10IL/MSI Wind + Meizu M8 +Xbox 360 which got so cheap in Europe lately.
