Guess this laptop and win True Launch Bar
The good people at TrueSoft have ponied up another prize to give away to one lucky reader of jkOnTheRun. They previously gave us a personal license to True Launch Bar which we gave away a few weeks back and now they have upped the ante and we have a Home license for True Launch Bar ($49.00 value) which is good for up to four computers for the winner! True Launch Bar is a great utility that I reviewed recently and it’s a good deal for the winner. I had a hard time coming up with a contest to justify such a good prize and decided to make it sort of a web scavenger hunt. The first person to post the correct make and model number of the mystery device in this photo (under the Sony U750) will get the Home license for TLB:
(Note: anyone who is in a position to already know what this is due to some involvement with me (i. e. I told you) is not eligible)

the device is a JVC Interlink 741 (MP-XP741)
The new Sharp? The Sharp Mebius Muramasa PC-CV50F?
I think Mohebius got it.
Congratulations, Mohebius! It is indeed a JVC Interlink 741 and you even got the official model number correct! I am evaluating the JVC for a review coming very soon and it is a sweet sub notebook. But that’s not what you care about, it’s the True Launch Bar Home license! Email me the real name and email for the license and I’ll make sure TrueSoft gets your license to you via email.
Congratulations. That took all of 5 minutes. :) How did you find it?
Any chance you will be giving away the JVC next?
I think the file name and alt/title tags on the image may have helped figure out the manufacturer if he/she didn’t know already. ;-)

Thanks,
It was easy. On the sites i visit ocasionaly the JVC Interlink has been there for some time for pre-order. :)
Here’s the link http://www.icube.us/Products/jvc741.htm or even http://www.dynamism.com/xp741/
These are great sites if you want to order something from Japan.
Looking forward to reading your review on the JVC.
And you should take into consideration the sugestion about the JVC give away… :)
I’m looking forward to your review, James. Actually, if it were a tablet, I’d have already ordered (despite what my wife says). If they can put a 60 gig drive in that, I wonder why Flybook can’t.
I just got a MP-XP741 from Dynamism. Work paid for it. I am using it way more than my U now. I have 1.25GB of RAM in it, and once I get the right Torx bits, am going to try to expand it to 2GB and replace the Japanes keyboard with the US.
Fantastic unit. Can’t say enough. I will always love my U70 … but the 741 is so much more useful because of the memory. I was running 4 VMWare virtual machines, PPT, and still had plenty of room to spare in a demo.
Oh yeah … I will most likely swap the HD for either a 7200rpm or a bigger one (5400rpm 100GB), and then upgrade again when the new 7200.1 100GB from Seagate or the Hitachi 7K80 are released.
