    Ok so last week I ordered a dv4t with a geforce 105m. I will not be doong a lot of crazy gaming. however my laptop will be the bluray player that I use as my primary player for my big screen hdtv.

    My first question deals with this video card. Is my use of the laptop good justification for needing this updated card? I would really hate to have my blurays skipping on the big screen. And it is benchmarked twice as fast as the standard card.

    Secondly I originally ordered the dv4t because it had the larger battery that I really wanted as well as the 512 video card. However it was not until today that I realized the dv3t has essentially everything I want as well and even comes in a smaller package. another huge plus for Me. I am fairly confident that I would like to switch to the dv3t with the same setup however I have not been able to find one in person t look at. Is there anything else about the dv3 that I should be aware of? Pros or cons?
