Hey there,
Very good review. Just a couple of things I would like to point out...
You said in the review that battery could be upgraded from 6 cell to 9 cell for an extra S$46 but the Dell website puts the upgrade at S$294!---i didt said anything about the price of battery.
Also, I was hoping to get the T8300 upgrade (2.4GHz) for the processor. Now, the T9300 upgrade would cost me an extra S$200 over the price with T8300 installed. I was wondering if it was really worth it, lets say for gaming purposes for the next 2-3 years?---about processor check different websites about processor review and go for prcessor with more cache memory.
Thanks
Cheers!

Is it true that the unit comes with Gigabit ethernet? A quick check on the dell website seems to indicate otherwise.
Could you confirm?
Could you comment on the lcd screen.? How good is it compared to competing models of the same class?. How many nits? what would you say is the viewing angle?
