Couple questions from a potential TX650 buyer

Always used Dell laptops, until I saw this one - it's so thin, and yet it has a cdrom player built in! wow! I HAVE to have it.

Anyway, three questions:

1) can I pull out the 60GB drive and put a 80GB or 100GB drive in?

2) what is the size of the power supply for this laptop? I've seen some ultraportables with huge power supplies. If someone could compare it to a pack of cigarettes (or two) or a cd case, that would be great.

3) does the wifi need to have that external antenna on the side to work? how easy does that come off/break off? how practical is that really?

 

1) No, it's a 1.8" drive so you're very limited.

2) I haven't seen this one, but prior T series adapters have been relatively small.

3) That antenna is for the WAN, not WiFi.

 

A review website said the power adaptor was the size of an icecream sandwich......mmmmmm.....

I think that 4200 rpm 60 gig hard drives are the best you can get right now in a 1.8 inch drive.

 

The brick is about 5 inch x 2.5 inch x 1.5 inch i say.
But batter life on this is pretty good. like 5 hrs or so..

 

battery life is actually closer to 6 hrs consistently... brick is small... if u need to carry around, it won't be a problem...
