    Can somebody do me a favor? Touch the bottom left of the backspace key. Does it sometimes not register the keypress? I want to know if I have a defective keyboard.

    Mine as well. I do notice keyboard flex along the two edges of the keyboard, but all the keys work. Still got problems with the fingerprint reader not working, but I don;t use it anyways.

    Thanks for the keyboard help. I have to hit the key in the center or top for it to register. I might ask for a replacement.

    I just ordered a 3350 today with the i3. I was looking for something to carry in my school bag that was decent on battery performance. Since for whatever reason nobody makes a quality, cheap 13 or 14 inch laptop with any A series proc, I went with this. I am curious though if if will be possible to upgrade my i3 to the i5 or i7 in the future.

    I replaced the keyboard and the problem with unregistered backspace presses went away. Thanks, guys.

    Hi,

    I just bought a Vostro 3350 and I was wondering if I could use an Intel 310 mSATA SSD in the WWAN/UMTS mini-PCI slot of the 3350. It seems to me that the SSD would fit in just fine but the question is, iss the mini-PCI slot of 3350 compatible with the very new mSATA stndard.

    Have any of you guys tried something like this? What would you say?

    Cheers

    Thanks for helping out with the keyboard. Now, some ethernet cables don't "click" when I insert them or stay in place. I inspected it and it seems like nothing's broken. My friend's computer doesn't have that problem.

    Can you guys plug in a cable and see if it clicks normally?
