    Has anyone received there 1720 yet? I just cancelled my 1520 and reordered a 1720. I was at a Dell kiosk today and the 1720 was much nicer and much better for my needs. I am glad I re-ordered and changed my color from brown to yellow -- however, I am not reading much about them on these threads? If you have pics, information, stories, etc. I'd love for you to share!! I may have missed threads on this so if you know of them and can point me to them that would be great as well!
    ;)

    You got the T7500 and I went for the T7300. Do you think there will be a big difference? I am not a gamer and I have heard there isn't too much difference in the speed of the 7300 vs. the 7500. Any info would be great!

    FYI... it's just possible that DELL has a metric which measures their performance on how many "pushes" each customer receives. So, in order to minimize the pushes, they start using parts ordered for earlier customers to fulfill the demands for later orders. This minimizes the actual number of customers experiencing pushes, but sacrifices the older orders/customers. So not a true metric, but a number they can hold up and say "even through this, only X number of people were effected." Problem is, I'm one of the "X's".

    Would someone care to comment?

    Ordered 7/9
    1st ESD 7/26
    2nd ESD 8/3
    3rd ESD 8/28
    4th ESD 9/5
    5th ESD 9/10
    Status - in production waiting on 313-5400. Same part used on many other SHIPPED 1520 green notebooks which were ordered 7/16 or later (the magic no push date for DELL)
