    What do you think? e1505 has served me well for almost 2 years but it is getting a little slow and I'm getting the bug for an upgrade.
    Amex wishlist has this model available for $900 + tax if you are lucky enough to get one:

    It is believed to have a 250gb HD but not 100% sure.

    Is this a good deal? Could I do better by building one and using an available coupon or something?

    good luck trying to get one. I tried to get the 42" panasonic tv as soon as the countdown went to 1 sec I hit refresh and they were sold out.

    the chances of getting one is very slim but it is definitely a great deal if you can
