Viewsonic V35 Coming Soon
Posted by Jason Dunn in "HARDWARE" @ 03:28 PM
Waiting for the Viewsonic V35? Szamot emailed me the following - I can't confirm this, so don't treat it as gospel, but it's good news!
"I just got a word from my rep at ViewSonic who has confirmed that V35 will be officially announced this coming Friday Nov. 15th for immediate availability in US and Canadian availability slated for January 1, 2003. All current production models are allocated to US all currently built for everyone else including Canada. The pricing will be in the range of $510 - $545 CDN but you can pre order one for as low as $475 CDN which means there is still some fat for resellers to trim. I am waiting to hear on Friday if by some stroke of luck I can get mine sooner than January 1, 2003. Life will be great."
On a slightly darker note, I've heard a report that the SD slot on the V35 is not SDIO. This directly conflicts what I was told at Mobius by the Viewsonic rep, so I'm trying to get a confirmation. Don't cancel those orders yet!
