    My local Bestbuy has the Qosmio X305 for sale as an outlet item for only $1049. Their website still shows $1549 for it but I would suggest going to your local best buy to check it out.

    That is a shocking drop in price!! I looked at it about 2 weeks ago when it was listed for the 1549.00 price. Nice screen and sound, but it is most definitely a DTR, due to heavy weight IMO.

    $500 off. I think now, the X305 is a good alternative to the 7811. Its $200 cheaper and still punches some good numbers.

    Very good price for what you get. It's really ugly though.

    It's very YMMV. Best Buy clearance items different from store to store.
