I don't really have any ideas about how much it is worth, but if you don't like this R51, why don't you just return it to IBM because it's only one week new.

I bought it on IBM's Boxing Week sale, so it can not be returned. I would like to sell this one and buy something a bit more portable, this is more computer then I need at this time.

Thanks

I would also consider trading for a smaller, like 12" screen laptop. With $$ going either way as well, depending on what is offered.

Thanks!
