    The CL models are sold in only spefic retail stores(cannot remember the name). The US stands for the general retail version to be sold in the USA. They might differ on the specifications but there arent any other differences.

    It may be just me but as far as my observations go, CL models have more defects. I know there should not be any reason for this but for example l2000, CL versions have been discussed more in these forums.

    I think this correct for the newer models. I just got my dv8113cl from Sam's Club. However, the zd8000 I took back in exchange for the dv had a 'z' suffix (zd8000z). I've looked at the dv's at Costco and they differ in the actual number,... 8113 vs 8130; with slight or no changes in configurations.
