Asas U3 Rocks the Casbah

It rocks everywhere else, so why not there? Check out these specs:

• Santa Rosa chipset
• 13.3" LCD
• Choice of Core 2 Duo processors
• nVidia GeForce G8400M G External graphics
• Up to 2.5GB RAM
• 160GB SATA HDD
• 802.11 a/b/g/n
• Bluetooth 2.0
• Optional GPS
• Optional 3G
• Optional TurboMemory
• eSATA, HDMI, GPS RF in, USB, Firewire, and a bunch of other ports
• 1.3 megapixel webcam
• Fingerprint reader

All of this is encased in a nice magnesium allow case, black, of course, with leather handrests. Other than an SSD and LED option, I can’t think of anything this monster doesn’t have. Should be available in the next few months, starting at $2,000 or so–which I find entirely reasonable, but then again I’m guessing the price could get astronomical when options are added.
