    Does anybody know if HP are planning on refreshing/updating the Envy product line?

    One of my ideologies I'm trying to accomplish in life is 'simplify and reduce' and I'm in the process of reducing all of my PC equipment to a single device. That device needs to be capable of a lot including being a great platform for gaming. I know that the current lineup of Envy's aren't too bad with gaming but honestly, it could be better and I would totally wait it out if it meant getting a fantastic piece of hardware after all is said and done.

    I just picked mine up with a 500 dollar off coupon, last time I saw a big coupon like this we bought my girlfriends i5 first gen envy 14, and the second gen was right around the corner. So if I were a betting man i'd bet in the next 2-4 months, like the above poster said

    I wouldn't count on a refresh until Ivy Bridge and the Radeon 7XXX series are released, probably March or April. it wouldn't make sense to do a refresh in the meantime, though they might update the CPU, RAM, and HDD/SSD selections between now and then, like as a 21XX model if they're not already out.
