    True. Although I really want the 1600x900 upgrade as 1366x768 on a 15.6inch is a torture. You are able to add just the 1600x900 option (just $11 more) all the way into the cart without adding the $110 wireless broadband option though (despite saying so on the screen upgrade section).

      Best $11 you'll ever spend.

    It's a torture to read text or using MS Office with the 1600x900 resolution. Also there was noway for me to get the screen upgrade without the 3G option a couple of months ago. I've even rung up the sale people.

  I have to say the new ThinkPad EDGE S430 quite a good buy as well.

  • Intel Core i7-3520M Processor
  • Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit)
  • 14.0" W HD+ (1600 x 900)
  • NVIDIA N13P-GLP (~GT620m)
  • 8GB DDR3 1600MHz
  • 128GB SSD
  • 4 Cell Battery 48.8Wh
  • ThinkPad a/b/g/n Wireless BT Combo (2x2 ABGN & BT4.0)
  • AU$934.15 delivered

  Also consider S430's have:

  • Thunderbolt, USB3 and HDMI1.4 port
  • 1.8kg puts it into light-weight category
  • "Claimed" 6 hours battery life (not sure how they do it from 4 cells)

  At least for me I think it would be a better buy.

    From the last generation, apparently the 14" HD+ screens weren't quite up to scratch compared to the 15" HD+. But I suppose one must tolerate it if they need the resolution in a smaller package.

  I just used it on this system and after discount it was $692.75, not bad either if you only need an i5. It said it already used an ecode, but it let me add this one too, I just upped the RAM.
