    Sadly I found out today that my new replacement laptop has now been backordered. :( It had an estimated build date of yesterday now it looks like hopefully sometime next week. Kinda sucks since It should have been at my door by Friday. Although I know it was an estimated date, until now I havent been let down on the time frame they gave me. Well I guess Ill still be waiting longer to try out my new machine.

    Ahhh, I know how you feel.... I had to wait 14 days for mine. But be patient, it's well worth the wait. :)

    I love mine more each day. :D

    My DV2000T is also delayed. HP sent me an email today apologizing for the inconvenience and they sent me a $50 discount coupon as courtesy.

    14 days doesnt seem like a long time til you go through countless hours of tech support, sending one in 4 times and waiting on it to come back, getting a replacement that isnt near what you spent with the company and them finally giving you somthing compareable lol. All in all I can wait it was just disappointing to hear. Its not like I dont have the DV8000 still to mess with til it arrives. I noticed yesterday almost all of their computer models are now gone other than the DV9 8 and 5. Its weird to not see like 8 models there. Guess we about to see a lot of new releases from them. Maybe the quad cores? Who knows lol
