No facts, but Amazon is just about out of stock of the s360. Best Buy is having a week-long sale with a $150 MIR. Circuit City is reporting "limited quantities".

Sounds like folks are trying to empty their inventories... but for what? a new model perhaps?

perhaps a preconfigured sonoma-based retail model is coming out.. not sure. But there definitely seems to be a good amount of rebates lately(got mine for $1450!).. I think a new model would be most probable.

they might release one with a better video card, kind of like the S360 / 260 split with the video.

Also, they might just be realizing that they are selling like, no 380 platforms until they get rid of their 270 platforms. So they are probably trying to get rid of the 360's so that they can introduce a new version of the 380, call it a 490 or something, to confuse people, and then sell it for 300$ more.

My guess would be the latter of the two.

with lower spec video and less battery life for $300 more.. Good Marketing and Profit..
