1440x900 IFL90 screens

Hey guys, I've had an IFL90 with the matte WSXGA+ screen on order from Powernotebooks since the middle of July now. Basically, I heard from them that there is no sign of those screens coming in anytime soon, but they can ship the glossy 1440x900 screens in a couple days...

Can anyone who has the 1440x900 screens comment on their quality or if the gloss is noticeable during regular use? I was really looking forward to the matte screen, but I'm tempted by the possibility of having my laptop within the week. I don't mind downgrading the resolution, but I don't want a screen that doubles as a mirror.

 

The WXGA+ resolution screens have always been delayed since the release of the IFL-90 laptop; I guess just now they're coming into supply, so I highly doubt there's anyone that has the WXGA+ screen is able to comment upon it.

However, if trends continue with the IFL-90's screen, it should be of very high quality; I have the WSXGA+ screen and the colors are balanced and the contrast is excellent.

 

I've order the WXGA+ FL90. I don't know when i get my laptop, can take another 1-2 weeks

 

I've swapped my order from a WSXGA to a WXGA+, so I'm in the same boat as you =)

 

I originally ordered the Sager NP2090 with the WSXGA+ from powernotebooks back on 9/25 and when I called to check on the build status they told me of the back orders on this screen so I changed it to the WXGA+. After 2 days thinking about my decision I decided to wait for the WSXGA+ and I changed the order back. Not that I have a problem with the WXGA+ in fact I think the resolution Of 1440 X 900 is perfect for a 15.4 inch screen, but my gut told me to wait for the 1680 X 1050 matte screen. I just did not want to be sorry later on because of being impatient. I probably won't see my rig until Thanksgiving though.
Powernotebooks have been fantastic with my order, honest and upfront about the delays. I am very happy I chose them for my purchase.

I'm waiting for ...

I just got my WXGA+ ifl 90 this past week

 

I was told by Sager that the 1440x900 are back-ordered. Was hoping they can switch my chassis to one that already has the 1440x900 screen since it was DOA and just got into their hands via RMA.

Ty (the tech there) is a very nice guy! Felt bad that mine was non-functional when I got it on day-one. Definatly a disappointing moment when you waited all this time for it to come and it didn't work when it finally arrives.

 

where can i order a WSXGA screen cause that resolution matched my LCD though..???

ANy recommendations? i have a FL90
