Help Me Choose: X60 or X60s with WWAN (Part 2)
Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 8:49 am
Sometimes, life gets more complicated with more choices... Yesterday afternoon, I saw a new Independence Sale promotion from Lenovo with a X60s (170463U with WWAN) going for $1599...

Then I remember the $200 rebate promotion (last day on 6/30) and called in to check if I can get that also. The sale representative confirmed that and so I can get the machine for $1399... great deal!
I ended up placing the order before the rebate expires, but am still debating between X60 for $XXXXXXX (through Shareholder Purchase Program) and this X60s (with WWAN and 8 Cell Extended Battery) for $1399... I want to sit on it for a couple of days and decide which way to go... Let me know what you think.
PS Anyone interested in X60s with WWAN if case I decide to go with the cheaper X60?

Note from Moderator: What I think is that you need to read the Rules of the Road paying particular attention to the part about not posting prices from specialized programs like EPP, students, shareholders, etc.
