No Bluetooth!? Its only a $2 part, but leaves only one USB port free. Bastards!
They want you to buy the next model up for another $50-100. You know how it is with manufacturers
No Clive Peters In Sydney???
Not anymore. They all got closed down when HN bought them out. There was actually a bargain posted about it… :P
So all gone? so quick…
It's still 'in stock' according to the website.
I just ordered one. $10 for courier- cheap as.
Anyone manage to price match at HN???
I want one now…lol.
Shame no clive in NSW.
Any Clive Peter in VIC?
Battery? 6 cells?
3 cells, the 1 i bought from HN weeks ago
It was $197 at HN and i got mine for $186.
Are u sure the same model, I saw another post here which is only 8.9" screen.
Or u bought it several weeks ago during super Sat.
@superforever: misclick vote…
anyway,i didnt get mine during Super Sat,there was a deal before that which is 210 after cashback..HN
Is it easy to add 1GB Ram without remove the keyboard?
i bought this saame one from harvey norman on Sunday for $259, $220 after cash back.
Anyone know what the 6 cell battery for this laptop is?
They've extended the promo (E53) from the deal that was being offered a few weeks ago.
But this price is $12 to $22 better than the HN prices
http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/30463
HN: 249 - 39 cashback = 210 originally
HN: 259 - 39 cashback = 220 currently (acc to dogisaac)
CP: 237 - 39 cashback = 198
Had I known that the promo was going to be extended, and CP was going to have this deal, I woundt have bought if from HN when I did - as I only caught on to it at the end, once HN re-raised thir prices claiming an error !
So I bought mine for $275 less 39 = $236. Looks like I am not that good a deal-hunter /hundler !! LOL !!
Still a decent price for the unit. Ive used it now and then, and last night was working in excel and the battery lasted 4.5 hours, and was down to only 60% !!!
mmm, not such a good reader either, just a couple of posts up. HN: $236 - $39 cashback = $197. And even cheaper if you can manage it.
Now as for your usage, your battery lasted 4.5 hours and was only at 60%?
I have been using this for web browsing and can only get 2.5 - 3 hours out of it. Have you plugged in a 6 cell?
Yup, I got it for $236 as well from HN a few weeks ago, and after cashback it'll be $197, just $1 difference from this.
Plus this was the latest HN Super Saturday, so perhaps it was just missed.
looks like i got dudded for ~ $40… oh well ! :-(((
Re my usage, no, I wasnt browsing at all, just using it for doing saome calculations and working on a spreadsheet during the course of a long meeting.
I wasn't using it actively the whole time, it hybernated a few times, but I woke it up as soon as I noticd that it was off !
It actually lasted around 3 hours on standby first (only reducing it by 10% or so, and then the 3.5hr meeting that I used it for.
I dont think it is a 6 cell battery… its the standarsd one that came in the box, is flat (and not bulgy like the 6cell one is).
DO you guys set ur display to full brightness??
Paypal only allows payment by linking a credit card? I have sufficient pp funds, but theres no option to let me use it & there is no direct deposit option either…..
I just paid via paypal without issues and like you i had sufficient funds in paypal.
it took like 3 minutes of "loading" to process the transaction.
Unlike the HN one a few days ago this has the better N450 processor and is about 1" bigger…
Is hard to claim cash back? Pay by cheque?
I found it easy, print out the claim form from the website, attach the barcode from box and attach copy of the invoice.
Harvey Norman price matched in Dandenong Vic once I showed them this link provided earlier.

Got last 2 from Thomastown store :)
