FULLY CUSTOMIZED CONFIGURATION X60s MODEL 1704-44U

[blueeyeblond]

Non of the preconfigured models for X60s laptops I found in tabook.pdf that I liked. So I found this model 1704-44U, and this model allows me to fully configure the laptop to my specifications.

Bluetooth: with or without

Battery: 4 cell or 8 cell battery

When I fully customised the laptop. It comes out to be cheaper than the preconfigured models. The only bad part is that when a model that is fully customized, it will take longer for you to get it. With all the wait, I think it's worth it.

about time, can't wait to have a low voltage dual core, with 2gigs of memory and a small 7200 rpm drive.

but knowing me, i'm going to have my current X40 for another year or two, and then spend 500 dollars on new batteries, and then update.

Where did you find that model number? I can't find it anywhere.

I went to levano's site picked the 17044DU and then changed the model number in the addressbar. to 170444U I could see the laptop blueeyedblonde was talking about. it seems to be set so you can't add a hard drive, a required field, so you can't really order it but it is a little bit cheaper. I am just not sure it is worth the small cost savings. the only difference I would not want is the verizon evdo. It just seems too expensive espically if you are locked in to a two year agreement...

170444U seems doesnt come with verizon antenna...

AFAIK there are NO X60 models that come with the EvDO verizon antenna built in..
in all of them you must use a PCMCIA card..
