    :) Like always when you buy something you are like mad during the wait... the bad thing about that is that you really find all the bad things about the product during the wait >_<...

    My question: Is the 3,5mm headphonejack still "noisy" when not having any music on? It's like that on my 4 year old dell laptop (has always been) I didn't care then as I only had 10$ headphones, but now when you have 250 $ headphones you really want the sound to be crystal clear...

    I talked to the dell support and they said, if there's something wrong with noise in the 3,5mm jack It's a defect, but I don't really know if he's just saying that :S

    Do _you_ got any problems with this? (btw noise is the wrong word for this but... my english is bad :p )

    i recently got my 1530 and discovered the only pair of headphones i own that made any hissing noise are the buds the laptop came with. they're not worth sending back when i have so many other better headsets lying around my apartment.
