Re: [tlug] WWAN subsidized English notebooks

Would anyone know a way to get WWAN subsidized notebooks with English keyboards? Most electronics stores offer big discounts for notebooks when you sign up for a WWAN service contract from EMobile etc. but the notebooks have Japanese keyboards with ridiculously small spacebars. Since I'll be needing WWAN service it would be wasteful to pay full price.

I bought a MSI Wind U100 from Pasokon Koubou with english kb. They had to order the kb and we had to wait a while. I don't think we had to pay extra though.
The Wind has a nice big kb, btw.

Also you can get English kb on some Dell models, including the mini9, which they offer with a WWAN package.
The mini9 kb is crappy in any language.
