I would like to know if the Wi-Fi situation, that accompanied this laptop on release, has been fixed on the models been sold?

I never had problem with the Wi-Fi at home or when I travel. I have used it in hotels in Jamaica, Argentina and Chile.

When I bought it, mine was at 20%... now I'd say it's on 80% compared to my old XPS 1330.... I've had it for 5 months now.

Slightly but I would still stay away from this particular model and go with the newer version. When it was not in use and I turn on wifi it is quite slow connecting and I still can't use two wifi items without on being really slow. hope this got back to you in time

Yes they made some changes in summer 2014 because of the issues they had with first generation. Mine came updated a couple months ago ready to go out of the box no issues. 4th generation Intel features is awesome. I wouldn't expect to do crazy gaming but better than most laptops in the same price range.

Dear Roy, It does not look like Microsoft is going to allow this model to update as of their last press release. This of course can change but as of now no is the answer. Thanks, Just Wireless inc.

I thought this laptop had already been released. As a matter of fact, I thought it was released on 3 March 2010. Is Amazon not selling the laptops until a later date?

Yes I had no issues whatsoever. The only thing wrong since I bought it was a problem the very first day it would not pick up wifi at all... It ended up being a Windows 8 issue. Evidently it needed an update, and for some reason it didn't do it automatically. Ever since I have had no issues. I thought I would have a problem with getting used to the new Wi does and touchscreen, I was honestly apprehensive. But I love it. Easy installation for all wireless devices as well. Hope this helps.

it is amazing laptop, however i would wait until the new version hits the market (has a much more powerful gpu and almost retina display similar to apple products), should be pretty soon!

Mine shipped with windows 8 but 8.1 was an easy upgrade. I have not had any wifi issues.

Waiting, I am wondering if I am falling for a lot of hype or will this be a top laptop. The best buy version did not impress me, I hope this version will. No news on release date but you can bet its a foul up with hw or sw. Lets hope software.

Yes it does. Everything else about the laptop seemed good, it came highly recommended by friends that know more than I do. I realize that sometimes you get a problem with things, so I still have high hopes for it. I hope this helps.

So, they are actually shipping this? Is this the UK version, since Lenovo does not seem to have released it in the US yet?

well, 7/9/08... still Pre-order only. in the meantime, the 'Egg has them in stock and shipping, but only the neutered XP/12GB version.

bought the laptop used and, promptly returned it. As the laptop was manufactured some time ago, I doubt whether it has wifi capability. It may - check the internet pull down connection and you may find your answer. I bought a new battery from the manufacturer and was mistakenly sent 4. So, if you need a new battery or two - let me know. They remain unopened in their original shipping packages.Susannah. shoshanah1@verizon.net

Seriously haven't any issues with the Wi-Fi since I bought it in Decembet. However just recently my computer crashed, and when I got it working again, I had problem with the Intel(r) rapid start system... it wouldn't start despite all the checks saying its working fine. And last night the whole system crashed. I'm going to spending most of today trying to fix it and not sure if my files will be on there when it does get to working. Seeing as I havent used it all that much yet and havent put any programs that might threaten it on the hard drive, I would say go for another computer, as I'm highly irritated and disappointed by this machine.
