Availability of Black S10?

[davistroy]

Seems that there are no, and I mean no, Black S10's to be had anywhere. The best I can find is a ship date of 3/5 from lenovo.com ... any ideas?

I am kicking myself for not buying at $299 from Tiger when they had them.

I will look around because my roommate wants one too, if i find it i will let you know.

Well don't kick yourself too hard. The $299 S10s @ Tiger were the last batch of the "old" S10s. From what I've read, and seems to be true based on Lenovo's own shipping dates, is that the "new" S10s will ship on March 6 at a MSRP of $349. I'm expecting (hoping?) that the street price of the S10 will remain at $299, and think it needs to be to remain competitive. $299 seems to be the new netbook sweet spot price. BTW when I say "new" S10s I mean the one's w/ Quick Start, and Facial recognition software pre-installed. It's the same hardware, of course. I'm waiting on a black one too. Newegg had some white ones briefly on Friday, but I decided to roll the dice and wait a couple weeks for a black one.
