    One thing I noticed it doesnt have which I wanted was an option for a 4G Wi Max wireless card. 4G will soon be the standard. HP???

    So... you'd rather pay for a laptop that can output 3d... than one that can actually PLAY 3d? Amazing how people think.....

    If you want to be tied down, might as well get a desktop.

    Even funnier is the fact that HDMI out 1.3 can also output in 3D. Look the PS3 has an almost four years old HDMI port and yet it does 3D.

    Just because 3D came officially with HDMI 1.4, that does not mean older versions cannot support it.

    Lol, I know I just revived this thread from the dead, so don't sue me... :D but I was thinking about it...I do hope we can play 3D content to 3D tvs using 3D blu ray, unless otherwise proven. If anyone has a 3D tv and a 3D movie.... let us know if it works, K? ;)

    I just wonder if its a port issue, or the upgrade to 1.4 lies in the graphics card in which case the card has to go, which, is not practicle much in the laptop, unless it is and I'm not aware of it... anyway, for me its not a real deal breaker keeping this lap, but I'd like to know more soon...

    I found a great site/forum with an amazing conversation/debate on this issue.... link below! :)
