<strong>So, if you have, please reply stating which model you purchased (and if you picked it up or just pre-ordered), where you purchased it, and the price, if you don't mind.

hi there,
just pre-ordered the TwelveBook or PowerBooklet, with 640MB RAM, 60GB HD, Combo Drive with AirEx Card and AirEx Base Station (without). $2170 edu pricing online at the Apple Store.
and i was able to buy it courtesy of a generous loan from Apple co-signed by the Bank of Mom and Dad. on that same loan, i was able to purchase a QS Dual 1Ghz last March.
(if you ask me tho,) as a full-time new media college student and part-time freelance designer [i'm not gonna get audited or something, right?, i'd definitely get/upgrade to a newer, more powerful desktop first, then get a laptop. i got the PowerBooklet because i definitely saw a more urgent need to get my ideas from paper to screen, as well as keep up with important emails from prospective clients. otherwise, i might've really just stayed with my desktop machine.
oh, but if you have the money, which was partly my case, why not?
