Envy 14-Optional Display?

After reading the stellar reviews about the HP Envy 14, I decided to price one out and make a purchase. A key feature was the optional 1600 x 900 LED display. To my surprise yesterday when I was pricing one out, this optional display is no longer available. I called Sales and the representative told me that it was available just a couple of days ago, but could not offer an explanation why it was not available anymore nor would she inquire further stating she would not be given a suitable answer.

Can anyone tell me why the optional 1600 x 900 LED display for the Envy 14 is no longer available or if it will be coming back?

I will not purchase this laptop without this option, so I guess I am back to square one. Thank you.

 

Supposedly the company that made the displays went out of business. HP has said the Radiance display will not be back. Here's an article.

There is some speculation that this might be a marketing ploy by HP, but we won't know probably for at least a month.

Thank you for your replies. I read the other thread and I guess I will sit by the sidelines and observe what develops. I will not purchase this laptop without the higher respolution display.
