    I've search all over the place and can't find a legitimate seller for the TravelMate 4500 series with 15.4 screen. Anyone have a answer to this? I live in the states, I see alot of oversea company that has it but i'm kind of worry about doing it through them. Any idea what i can do?

    Are you looking for the 4501WLMi? The 4500 is the series of notebook in the Travelmate line. The 4501 is one of their older models that have been replaced by the 4502 and up. The specs have also changed from the original 4501 model. You may still be able to find the 4501WLMi in the UK/Europe, but I believe it's no longer available in the US/Canada.

    I just want a Acer Travelmate with widescreen. I like the TM4500 b/c it has it better graphic card than the TM4000. I don't even mind buying the old model. I can't find any good stores that would ship overseas. [ :(!]. I really want this machine, I guess I have to ship myself to UK to get it. Anyone have any suggestions?

    They have the Travelmate 4502 that you can get in the Wide screen format. Any model with a "W" in it indicates it's widescreen. According to the Acer USA site, they still have the 4501WLMi models available in the US. They just don't list the shops that actually have them in stock. You may want to try sending an email to Acer and see if they can provide a list of dealers that they shipped 4501WLMi models to.
