Paid $570 Canadian (~450 US). Sharp supposely is going to announce the new one on 10/20. I eventually intend to buy two, so it depends what the new one is like - I may just end up with 2 860s. There are a few leaked specs that indicate that the new machine will be basically the exact same thing, but include a 4gb hd. Not really something I want to spend almost 70000 yen on. :P We'll see. (Aw, who am I kidding? I'll end up buying one, I'm sure.) I've already technically replaced the 110ct. I picked up a Panasonic Toughbook M34 MKI. Fully armoured sub-notebook. It isn't as small as the Libby, but it's got a celeron 300, 192mb ram, 800x600 touchscreen, and built in USB. It was the touch-screen that did it - I haven't used my 110ct since I got the touchscreen on the 50m working.
