    hmmm... i cant seems to find any evidence of this? any sources/link?

    is the FreeFall sensor in the notebook, or is it in the HDD (the cheating way), like the rest of DELL's lineup?

    Did you look at the configuration page under Hard Drives?
    The free fall sensor is in the HDD itself. If they use the same hardrives as the M17, they are Seagate 7200.4 Hardrives.

    this is from DELL.com.au (AUSTRALIA, AUD prices)

    no mention of free fall sensor

    hmmm.. that mean its like DELL's other notebook.

    do you guys realise that the HDD sensor, that is integrated in the HDD. is not as effective as the one that is built onto the notebook itself?

    plus, when you go and get the HDD with FreeFall sensor, it will be more expensive and harder to find.

    really shame. the rest of the notebook looks real great.

    I was giving one person who I pm'd a day to think about it, but I highly doubt he will be worth the trouble, it will be up tomorrow I think.

    Hopefully it wont be too hard to sell (I can post the awesome scores it has pulled to help :))
