where are you from?

 

Sounds like a good deal to me I think you'll enjoy it.

 

Have fun with your new notebook! I can't wait for mine to be shipped.

 

I think u can get a better deal...

 

I think everything on dell website is going to be little expensive then few weeks ago, when there we abundance of coupons were around. I think it's wise to wait a couple of weeks to see what will dell do if their sell drops. And Don't forget to Merom. Since the the prices between Yonah and Merom is going to be same. Dell might have jacked up the price a bit for expactation of Merom sells...

 

Yeah, that's pretty pricey man.

I got the E1505 with:

1 GB Ram
80 GB Hard Drive
ATI Mobility Radeon 256MB X1400 Video Card
Same Screen
Same Processor

$760 after shipping and tax.

 

try to call back an get spec out another one through somebody else... And then call epp and say u want a better deal...

 

Too much $ for integrated graphics and basic widescreen.

 

Weird. I can swear Dell sold the exact same thing plus 9-cell battery for CDN $1100.

 

e1405 doesn't offer discrete graphics.

I would agree that that is a little pricey; but you've got to figure in that he got the 2 year CC.

 

I got mine for $1281, less than $80 more than your price, but w/ these specs (check my signature)

go argue on the phone w/ Dell. It's not worth $1205.
Also, don't pick up the Creative Sound Blaster Audigy thing. You can get the drivers FREE on the support page where all the drivers are. I know for sure they're under the E1505 - under "audio," next to the sigmatel driver

 

if you're from the US, then you should be to able get a better deal than that...

there probably will be better coupons next week...

 

I know that the general concensus is that you are getting ripped off but man YOU ARE. I have the same notebook you bought with more processing power and just a smaller HD and I paid 800 bucks shipped.

 

Well I think I got a good deal, yes?
