Dell mini 10v specs are at the link, the main difference is this one has a faster CPU (N280/1.66GHz vs N270/1.6GHz) and faster wifi (802.11n vs 802.11g) compared to the vanilla 10v.

First, start off at moneybackco (https://secure.moneybackco.com/merchants/Dell/) and then follow the links through to the Dell website. Then find the mini 10v which currently has a $100 discount thus bringing the price from $599 to $499. When checking out your order, you can uncheck the support option which brings it down a bit more. Finally apply the coupon code to bring it to $464.64, which ends up as $432.12 after the moneybackco deal - a total of nearly 28% off!

Stock is limited, but hopefully my order gets honoured fingers crossed

    Tempting, especially good for hackintoshing.

    • chylld on 29/10/2009 - 00:58

      which is exactly the reason behind my order :)

      • jackh on 29/10/2009 - 11:13

        I bought a mini 10v last week for this exact purpose also, and was astounded at how well it works. I used the http://code.google.com/p/netbook-installer/ method and it worked first time (my 10v came with bios A05 rather than one of the later BIOS which need to be rolled back making my job much easier). Camera, sleep, multi-touch trackpad, bluetooth, wifi, card reader, ethernet, sound, sound-after-sleep… it all just works. The only downside is… well it's a Dell and feels like one :) and also the trackpad is just horrendous. Otherwise… it's fantastic, a brand new "Mac" for $450! :)

  • ranma on 29/10/2009 - 01:05

    Don't forget MoneybackCo's 7% (maybe), and it'll bring it to a 30% reduction in price!

    • chylld on 29/10/2009 - 01:06

      yeah I did it through moneybackco, but am not sure that it's been applied so didn't mention it in the original deal. not sure how the $10 membership fee works either…

      also tried to apply my nrma membership discount, but that doesn't seem to apply to the mini :(

      • GerrardLFC on 29/10/2009 - 02:38

        I was reading moneybackco Dell page and saw that if you use discount codes that they will not do the moneyback. Is this true?

  • denlife on 29/10/2009 - 03:04

    Shame that it doesn't have a built in web cam, otherwise I would be keen.

    • chylld on 29/10/2009 - 10:13

      It does have a webcam as samksng points out below :)

  • downsys on 29/10/2009 - 07:56

    Thanks for this. I've just bought one. Now to find 2 other netbooks for mom and dad.

  • wfdTamar on 29/10/2009 - 09:39

    If you go through the Moneyback site (7% off) and deselect the support option on the first customise page end cost is $454.87. Don't use the coupon in this deal (a 5% off Inspiron) because you won't get the Moneyback discount (which is 7%).

    • chylld on 29/10/2009 - 09:41

      but the $100 off is already a coupon (E-value code: S510906AU) which appeared alongside the 5% coupon for me at checkout… i guess it depends if the moneybackco offer works only with NO discount codes applied.

      • wfdTamar on 29/10/2009 - 09:48

        Good point. Here's the Moneyback fine print:

        'If you use an EPP or an NRMA discount your transaction will not be tracked and you will not be eligible for moneyback. In this case we will not be able to process an enquiry made for the missing transaction.'

        I think EPP is E(something) Partner Program and NRMA must include any state motoring organisation, so I reckon you're right that you could get all 3 discounts - -end price $432.12? :-)

        • chylld on 29/10/2009 - 09:51

          E is for employee i think. as soon as i hear back from dell or moneybackco i'll update the deal :)

          • wfdTamar on 29/10/2009 - 10:11

            @chylld: Ok I've worked out their logic. You can only use 1 referral code (designed to get you to the Dell site) like Moneyback, EPP or NRMA (etc) (which are all external to the Dell site).

            Once you're at the Dell site, you can pile on as many coupons FROM Dell as you can manage because that's all internal discounting (internal to Dell). So that means the $432.12 should be right (if you start off from MoneyBack).

            • chylld on 29/10/2009 - 10:15

              @wfdTamar: that makes perfect sense :) starting off at moneyback is what i did so i'll update the deal.

  • samksng on 29/10/2009 - 09:55

    Good find!!

    I thought it does come with a built in web cam, denlife.

    Do dell give you a free upgrade to windows 7 with this purhcase?

    • GerrardLFC on 30/10/2009 - 00:21

      Most new Dells come with Windows 7 now.

      Should come with Windows 7 Starter on it.

  • Bappy on 29/10/2009 - 12:42

    Is there a link - how this moneback really works
    Sorry for the dumb questions - I just created a new account in MoneyBack Co.

  • Elephant on 29/10/2009 - 21:13

    Any preference between this one and the S101H http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/18265 ?

    • chylld on 29/10/2009 - 21:21

      they're very similar. this one has a faster processor, the other one has better styling. some reviews say the screen on the s101h is sub-par for 10" netbooks, but at the end of the day i think it would be hard to tell especially without them side by side. the s101h deal is a much bigger % discount, but after all the discounts are applied the mini 10v is still cheaper :)

      if you're after a netbook to turn into a hackintosh though, you can't go past the 10v :)

      • Elephant on 29/10/2009 - 21:24

        Thanks for that. What's with the whole hackintosh thing? Worth it if you don't have any macs in the house?

        • chylld on 29/10/2009 - 21:29

          personal preference mostly, but if you need to run os x for something then the cheapest macbook is $1299 which is over 3 times the price of this one :)

  • WhiteEvo6 on 30/10/2009 - 18:49

    This is still running however Dells price is $458, minus the coupon code brings it down to $434.80. Unsure if you can then get the additional money back co refund, love to see if you could but Moneybackcos site is not working for me, I have tried to register on that site 3 times and it refuses to send an email to my email account so I can start using it. Very annoying.

  • wfdTamar on 30/10/2009 - 19:05

    Worth looking at this one too.

    HP MINI 110-1006TU ATOM-N280 1.66GHz, 1GB, 160GB, 10.1” WXGA, XP HOME (#VB696PA)

    http://www.centrecom.com.au/catalog/product_info.php?product…

    $399 plus shipping

    Whoops, it's sold out already.

  • downsys on 01/11/2009 - 06:41

    This deal is now $426.44 (before MoneyBackCo) for those interested. Note that it doesn't come with Windows 7 but only Windows XP. I paid $40 more just a few days back (haven't even received my order yet)

  • wfdTamar on 01/11/2009 - 10:12

    Just had another look at this - the coupon code at the top of this page is a 'Membership Platinum Discount' one (according to the Dell checkout page). So is that an NRMA one (can the OP answer that?). If so you couldn't use it and get the MoneyBack 7% too (according to my theory half way down the page). So $417.47 would seem to be the cheapest at the moment (that's not using this page's coupon, but with MoneyBack).
