    Yea I just noticed it was up myself. I can't believe it wasn't an option when the notebook came out.

    Yes, I'm quite annoyed. However, I couldn't have gotten as good a deal as I was able to use the $300 off and get the $200 gift card, although I missed the $200 stackable coupon, which would have gotten me a slightly faster processor and faster HDD.

    However, I'm very happy. The screen is fantastic, and I can deal with WXGA, although I would rather have WXGA+.

    What is shady about them upgrading their products? No one forced you to buy one, I don't see how it's related to Christmas. All the rumors clearly pointed to the screens coming online in late December...

    It's not being "shady", it's called "Business As Usual".
