    As I wrote in my first post, I’ve ordered a Dell XPS M1330 about a week ago (June, 29th). This is the configuration I chose:

    • Intel Core 2 Duo T7300(2 Ghz, 4MB cache L2, FSB 800 Mhz)
    • Windows Vista Business
    • 3 years warranty NBD
    • 13,3″LED display with webcam (on the Italian site you can’t choose the display without webcam)
    • 2 GB RAM DDR2 667Mhz (2×1GB)
    • hard-disk SATA 160GB 5400rpm
    • nVidia® GeForce™ Go 8400M GS with 128 MB GDDR3 memory
    • 9 cell battery 85Wh
    • Bluetooth
    • mini Intel® Pro/Wireless 3945 802.11a/b/g
    • nylon thin case, 56k external usb modem

    Final price, thanks to an interesting discount by the sale manager, is about 1.500€ (2.050$) without 20% of IVA, corresponding to VAT in Italy.

    My notebook is in pre-production from 06/30/2007, estimated ship time 07/20/2007. As you can read in this forum thread (36 pages now!), most of the estimated ship times are in august or september: two months is a long time to wait ;-)

    1. If you’re waiting like me, there’s a post on Direct2Dell about XPS M1330 order status ;-)

    2. wow !

      people are buying NOW with ETA in two months ? That’s foolish since in two months from now prices / equipment for a model will certainly change significantly …

      no, buying like that it’s not for me …

    3. I agree with you: if you know before the order that ETA is 2 months, it’s better to wait and place the order in late august or september.

      I’m still hoping that my M1330 will be shipped before 07/20 ;-)

    4. Damn! Ship date has changed to 08/14 :x

    5. [...] Today I took a look at the Order Status page for my Dell XPS M1330: [...]
