    I thought those were confirmed to not ship with this laptop anymore?

    Made me really happy when I unboxed it and saw sleeve there :). I had even called my seller and asked if I could have it shipped with my laptop and he said he had no control over that and that I'd probably not get it.

    It rocks so much. Can't say much about the earphones, though :p.

    Sweet! You got lucky...and that's a good thing! ;) :)

    How is the 1330 working out for you so far! ;) :)

    I still use my sleeve for my 1530 as added protection when packing it in my Messsenger bag, or *older* back pack when traveling by bike, if needed ;) :)

    Again! awesome on the extras and your new lappy!

    Cin ;) :)

    As you can see (in my signature) I'm getting the motherboard and HDD changed in two days, but apart from that it's running smoothly!

    Btw, I'm also getting a Messenger bag for my laptop, or so I expect, I wished for one on my birthday which is in a few days :D. I'm also gonna use the sleeve for extra protection.

    The laptop with the 9-cell battery is heavier than I though, though. Gonna be horrible to carry around everywhere! :p

    Ooish..Yeps I see now! ;) :) So, On-Site's coming to your house then! They came and replaced my Motherboard about 2 months ago! And the Technician was really nice! :) He came later in the evening too, so I wouldn't have to leave work early! :) :) Everything worked great after that! :)

    I will go ahead and presume that you will have the same great service I received, and the Techn. will take great care of your lappy!

    The sleeve is nice..but Messenger Bags rock! I have a really sweet and sexy one (well at least I think) :p :rolleyes: :D for my 1530~!!!

    What kind are you getting?

    The 9 cell.....oh thats to bad...I have both the 6cell and 9cell for my 1530..I really enjoy the 9 cell, it gives great elevation & ventilation ~ and is nice to have with the notebook on your lap! ;) :) Or even, desktop! :)

    I hope all works well with the replacement M.Board and HDD!

    Cin ;) :)

    Immel,
    Customer Service claims that we didn't get the accessories because they are not listed in our order and that this promotion is over.

    Would you please look at your order itemized details and let us know if the sleeve and earbuds were listed there?

    Thanks

    The only thing my order says is "Laptop" basically, no specs or anything.

    Congratulations!

    Perhaps the guy you were talking to requested it for your order.

    I received my notebook yesterday, and received no accessories.

    I wish they included the sleeve at least.

    Go to your account on dell and look for your recent order. Then you can see all details of the order. Would you please check?
    Thanks

    Checked it. It says "Carrying case not included" (I'm guessing this refers to that I didn't chose any carrying case when I ordered it). The earphones aren't there either.

    they have all been coming with the sleeve. it was the cd case/portfolio, wipe cloth and ear phones they were not coming with. Did they give you the creative earphones or some other brand?

    The motherboard is Rev 01, which makes a sight whining noise that is extremely irritating. The HDD is making some noise that signifies that it might have corrupt sections.

    I got the creative earphones.
