It won't come in a week. Not with the current models, because they are selling so fast that even Flash can't touch them. The factories are churning out less than the orders are.

As for Australia, yes you can get from a reseller there. There are a couple; Pioneer Computers (ridiculous prices imho), LogicalBlueOne (I recommend this one) , there's another one but I can't remember.

It may be so that it's $149 but you add up the total for my overall system, it just comes to RM5k with shipping.

It's an UPS Express Mail Insured; well that's what it says on the invoice.

The Australian ones are ridiculous. Dont bother buying from there unless on sale.

My G73JH with blu ray and hybrid HDD cost more than 3kAUD without discount. Unless you got it on sale, don't bother buying it in aus.

It's decently priced, that's why I suggested Logical Blue One. If you know you can't find the time to receive in Malaysia then buy from LBO.

There is no rush order.
The orders are in the queue.
Orders come from various vendors worldwide.

Clevo started shipping 8150 to vendors 1-2 weeks ago.
Clevo has been shipping 8170 to various vendors this week.
Many people are waiting in the queue.

Talk/PM to Mucro and see whether he/she can help you in "rush order" or not.

SB-i7-2630 is faster than any Nehalem-quad.
Look the performance difference of i7-2630, i7-2720 and i7-2920
Look at the % of performance gain.
http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Intel-...rs.43714.0.html
i7-2720QM has the sweetest spot in price/performance.

Gotta agree based on that i7-2720QM is worth the $$.. you need to pay much more for 2920XM and get just that "little" boost. Based on 3dmarkvantage CPU test.

Not only the little boost, 2920XM processors allow overclocking. But then again, most end users do not go that far towards the laptop use.
