    Hi guys, spent two hours at best buy today..nearly pulled the trigger and bought myself a 7805..but i want the 1920x1200...from what I can gather..all of the serial numbers begin with WX03040 or something like that..the part I think that can tell us if its a 1440x900 or a 1920x1200 is a portion of the serial that is either "3848" or "3901" can anyone confirm or deny this?

    I really wanted a 1900 res, but didn't get the right batch. I got the 1440. The only thing I see similar to yours is that mine has the 3902 in it.

    I'm hoping to return it before the 14 days and luck out. :/

    EDIT: It's the 1440 AUO Screen. :(

    Sounds like it! I'll test this and get back to you all. I'm pretty much determined to get the right one now!

    So far, yes. I bought my son a 7805 yesterday (he just opened it this evening - b-day gift). The screen is a 1440 LG (LPLA103) and the relevant part of the serial number is 3901.
