    Anyone knows if Hp is abandoning this model?
    Went to the website and it's no longer there.
    There's only the DV6000t available.

    Anyone?

    i believe so, i went to their website and i noticed that they do not sell the dv5000t anymore just dv5000z... i guess it is because of the dv6000t...

    Any reason you went for the 5000t rather than the 6000t?

    About 400 reasons why.

    Glad I got mine in, I love the design so much mroe than the 6000, though I wish they offered imprint for the 5000.

    I think they are going to phase out the 1000/5000/8000 series.
    It is like a while-supply-lasts thing.

    The dv6000t is a better notebook in my own opinion, but to each his/her own.

    Thanks for the input.
    I was lookink foward for a DV5000t.
    I rather enjoy the look of the laptop and the pcmcia port wuold come in handy.
    With any luck they only phase it out in Portugal in a couple of months.
