    Hey I just wanted to ask if anyone knows why the dv5t isn't on the U.S. HP online store.

    I ordered mine on January 18th, and they took it off maybe the 21st or 22nd of the same month.

    It's weird, seemed to be a really popular model, why they discontinued it is beyond me.

    Yeah this made me angry, i was about to buy one.
    With the bigger battery it had a decent battery life for a laptop of it's size and capabilities. Now i'm considering the asus g50v, but i heard the battery life sits around 2 hours :(
