    What is currently the best deal on any TZ model?
    I noticed that there are TZ1xx, TZ2xx and TZ3xx.
    It appears that the TZ3xx are the premium models with the SSD and LED-lit screen, and carbon fibre.
    Also that the TZ2xx are non-premium with LED-lit screens.
    Then the TZ1xx are non-premium WITH NO LED-lit screen?
    Also, a minor difference in low-voltage CPU's and black vs champagne color among the models.

    I am just wanting to know what is the best overall deal on any model?
    Also, if you get one without SSD, can SSD be added after the sale?

    Can anyone point me to existing threads and/or tell me:
    1.) What is the numbering scheme on the TZ series?
    2.) What is the best overall deal on a TZ today?

    Thanks,
    Andrew

    All TZ models have an LED backlit screen and carbon fiber lid, only the design, look of the lid will look different.

    Yes, you could install an SSD into the machine afterwards, there are guides and people here to help you to do that.
