    Can anyone please post live pics of the Acer 4500 if they own one. Would love to see how it looks in real life pictures. Thanks.

    You can do a search for the 4500 series. I'm sure you'll find a lot of info that would answer most of your questions.

    Hey Venombite thanks for the link. Those are really good pictures. But kisut to note, the rear end of the 4500 looks so ntidy and sloppily made, i mean with jagged edges and stuff. I just saw a pic of the HP zt3000 and it was kinda smooth. I think you can compare an Acer 4500 with a HP zt3000...

    The back is made jagged so that you can get a better grip when holding the unit. It's supposed to have some sort or rubber liner on the battery for grip. It's just a design. It's mainly user preference.

    Hey
    i can tell you the jagged edge is great to grip it is actually like a horizontal mesh and you hold that well.
    Also, the setup of most controls is good though i confess i dont enjoy the 4-way scroller and i prefer the synaptics virtual scroll.
    Hope that helps you all..
    enjoy!
