    I know that the P-7805u has some resolution in screen differences due to all the batch confusion. However other than the screens resolution, what are the differences between the P-7805u and the P-7801u?

    P7805u is spec'd with a 1440x900 screen, but many have come with the better 1920x1200 screen. The 7801u is spec'd with a 1920x1200 screen so it should be guaranteed to have one. That's the only difference between the two from what I've seen.

    I agree -

    the screen difference specs are the only thing we can discern at this time.
