Anyway, remember, there are different versions of the U120. Thus the different prices. In the US, we have these: U120-024US - (no Bluetooth) - roughly $370 U120-020US - (Bluetooth 2.0 EDR) - roughly $470 Both are 6-cell, 1GB/160GB, 1.6GHz, XP configurations. BTW, Amazon uses a volatile sinusoidal pricing model similar to how airlines do it, so keep checking the price until it ebbs back down to a reasonable level. Don't get burned paying $35 more than you could be paying if you just come back a little later. There are probably 4 or 5 prices that it will drift up and down to over the course of a day. For example, right now Amazon is showing $405 for the U120-024US (non-BT) model, earlier it was $379. These have been in stock for at least a week, don’t know why it took so long to report.
