    Looks like the final closeout on the 13" Vostro V13 SU7300-1.3 2Gb 320GB W7-HP

    Here is the latest update on the Dell V13 ... the price has now dropped to $349 :)

    I can't speak for a 7200 rpm drive, but the Toshiba 5400 rpm drive in my Latitude 13 was silent and no vibrations at all, though it has been replaced by a 80 GB Vertex 2.

    here's a thread follower saying hi to all the v13 owners. been eyeing it for a while, but yesterday found the i3 travelmate 8172 11.6" for a respectable aftermarket price. chose it over the dell, mainly because of it's "up to 8hrs" battery and i must say, this thing is also *nice*. but gotta keep the follow on, i know someone is essentially going to fit a decent battery into v13's looks!

    There literally is no room in the V13/Latitude 13 to really add another battery unless they had another thin battery with additional WHr.

    How does the $349 V13 stack up to the V130, i.e. dual celeron, i3 and i5 CPU's? Man that's a crazy deal. :eek:
