At the UK launch in London on Thursday, we actually got our mitts on the new launches and found out there's more than just the CineDash multimedia console, the 16-inch screen, the fingerprint reader (which had only been a feature of business models) and the innards including the Intel Core 2 Duo, or Penryn, processor. There is, in fact, also an 18.4-inch model, which comes in three different version ranging between £899.99 and £1399.99. This is compared to the 16-inch model, which has a price point of between £699.99 and £1149.99. Both will arrive next month. Unfortunately the Blu-ray player isn't standard throughout but Dolby True Surround Sound is. In the higher spec models, this means five built-in speakers and a subwoofer, and in the cheaper models, two speakers and, again, the subwoofer. Coming soon to Megawhat will be our quick review of the new notebooks, for which we had a chat both with the experts from Acer and the Dolby team. Make sure you check it out and in the meantime, here's some more pics to whet your appetite.
