Saz, please post your thoughts about the XPS M1210. I need a traveler. The D420 doesn't have integrated CD which won't work for me.

What integrated brand of NIC does the M1210 come with? I dislike Broadcom.

Anything new coming down the pipeline (that you are aware of) for portable notebooks?

The 1210 is pretty good. It's light, the extended battery really appeals to me vis a vis the base one primarily because I am a fan of being wireless longer

Not sure of the NIC, I have only ever used it wirelessly.

Not aware of anything else coming down the pipeline soon.

The 420's dock btw is actually quite low profile. The only thing I don't like about the 420 is lack of a discrete video card (for vista)

The 1210 is also built differently than the inspirons, i.e. its sturdier, a lot like the latitudes.

I'd like longer battery life so I'd prefer the Intel 950 over the Nvidia card. But for Vista I should probably go for the Nvidia card.

What do you think?

Sign up for the NDA roadmaps.

I think Matt has. Coz he's cool like that.

No major changes that I am aware of.

Earlier in this forum there was an error that users were receiving with the Wave Security Suite of "Applicationi Could Not Launch". Here is the fix:

1. First, go to Program Files\Wave Systems Corp\Common\NTRU12
2. Copy the file tcg15.dll
3. Go to C:\Windows\System32 (the same in XP and in Vista)
4. Place the new tcg15.dll file into the System32 folder
5. Say Yes to Overwrite the file
