    Hi All.

    I am just about to purchase a HP DV6330, but cannot find whether the machine comes with the PCi Card Remote as standard.

    I live in The Netherlands, but due to my rubbish Dutch language, I am off to The UK to purchase my new laptop. (Cannot cope with Dutch OS)

    I am getting the Laptop from John Lewis, but their website does not state whether it comes with the remote as standard.

    Anyway I have checked and checked and checked www.hp.co.uk with loads of part numbers, etc and they show the remote but you cannot order it and I can only get from the States, which will incur $44.95 shipping costs.

    OK, about time i get to the question.......

    Has anyone bought on of these in the UK and did is come with the remote, or where on earth, or to be more local, in the UK can I get a remote.

    I may be a little premature and the laptop will come with one, but just incase, I wanna pick one up with my sparkling new toy.

    Thanks in advance

    Bishop

    I ordered mine from hp.co.uk and it came with the remote control as standard. I don't believe it was mentioned on the specs list when I bought it, but I'll check the invoice when I get home.

    It's absolutely fantastic; I love the remote. It's a great shape and does everything I need it to do. And it fits inside the machine for storage, so even better!
