    I have been looking for MONTHS , literally trying to decide on the right laptop to buy..well I finally decided on the Latitude D830...or one of the other 15 inch models! Well now that I have finally decided on one, I have learned they are coming out with NEW Latitudes in June I believe...Should I wait ? What will be the biggest differences? ...Will they still "look" the same? Any help is appreciated...

    I would suggest to wait if you're not in a hurry for one because not only will those latest Latitudes have the latest technology but those look really nice (at least they are better looking than the current ones IMO).

    Wait. The new "E" series looks to be a huge improvement over the current D series, both aesthetically and feature-wise (for example, the new 15 inch has built-in GPS!). They will also weigh noticeably less.

    Here's an idea of how they'll look:
