No need kick yourself. The 2GB promo will come again. Their promos always rotate one.

Wait next week and see. Maybe it might come again. Else you can always make your order through the phone instead of online and try to haggle with them.

Friend of sundowner? Hmm... wow... long time liao leh... you like that say only I can't really remember also leh.

Eh more prilvileges and more personel services bahZ. Must go down to find out more. For me, buying from shop is definitely better then buying online.

dell 1420 ish heavy also mah

1420 is definitely not heavier than 1520. Lift both 1520 and 1420 at the shop, which 1420 is more lighter compared to 1520.

you don't even need to wait for it to be rotated.

just call the sales rep... they have access to previous offers and can give you the same or similar package.

Any screen protector to recommend for the 640m with the collect size?Thanks.

1420 is definitely not heavier than 1520. Lift both 1520 and 1420 at the shop, which 1420 is more lighter compared to 1520.

it also depends on whether its 6 cell or 9 cell?

anyway, i agree with u...1420 is lighter...jus tried it today at courts...but i dunno how many cell batt they are using..

to all:
is there anything to put to prevent the color on 1420 to wear off (and how much)? i heard the colors wear easily.

and also, when using ac adaptor, we take out the battery....but are we able to put a dud so that wun get in the parts usually covererd by the battery?
