    Has anyone bought this, or any other accessory with a ESD of 3-5 weeks through dell?

    I just ordered the Zalman and a kensington microsaver ds because i had a $50 coupon that i got because the lack of a remote.(the coupon took a week before the email was sent and by that time i had ordered by phone because it was $3.99)

    The lock says within 24 hours, but the Zalman says 3-5 weeks, anyone know a more accurate date, hopefully closer to 24 hours? ;) I cant see it taking 3 weeks, but maybe 1 or 2 to get sent from Zalman to Dell, get boxed and reshipped. Anyone have any experience?

    So if I don't get my remote and whine about the GPU having DDR2, I'll get a $150 coupon to buy crap from Dell?

    Depending on when you ordered and when they took down their information.
    Did you see it listed at gddr3 level performance? Do you want the remote?
    Or do you just want free stuff?

    The remote would be nice, but I really just want free stuff >_>

    However, I did order my laptop before they took down the bandwidth showing GDDR3 speeds, and I actually am mildly upset as I plan to game on this for the next year. I mainly want a bag and a new router as my current one sucks.

    I don't think you'll get the same deal on the remote, and it takes time for the graphics. The graphics is money back, so you can use it wherever.

    Anyway, someone has to have experience ordering accessories through dell...
