They are advertising it for $399 but you will not get this price at any store or directly from them.

It would be nice if they a honest in their advertisement.

Thank you.

The only thing is that, point by point, the $499 model and the $649 model have the exact same specs with the tiny exception of the $499 one’s battery life saying “up to five hours” while the $649 says “up to four hours,” which leads me to believe that the $649 version uses a bit more juice to power the extra resolution at 1366×768.

Not that it makes sense that it’d use an entire extra hour’s worth, but who knows. HP mislabeled everything else, so maybe they mislabeled the battery life spec too.

They are all SD or standard definition right now. Future models will be HD.

I spent some time chatting with HP support, and even that guy (Robert from CO) couldn’t discern which was which amongst the models. Frustrating. I have been on this train since the other model, and can’t wait for this one (ie, to get the ok from my wife on this one)…
