    The dv5-1002nr @ Bestbuy would be a better deal than the dv6809wm. The dv5 is the model which replaces the dv6500 series, so you get the updated design plus it also has much better HD3200 IGP along with bigger hard drive & griffin series processor.

    P.S: Bestbuy used to sell the 1002nr for $599, maybe they might offer the same deal in the coming weeks.
