    I'm thinking of getting one. I had one about a year ago that I sold and purchased a M15x (which I love dearly!) but would love to buy another M11x for traveling because of the size/weight. The 15x is just huge. I know Dell has the 11xR1 on sale for $599, but is there any coupons that could be applied to it or do you guys know of any reps that dropped the price down some more?

    That's pretty bottom of the barrel for a new R1. I paid almost $900 for mine a year ago, so chances are that you're not going to be able to eek out much more than that. Keep an eye on the tech bargains subforum, though.

    I got mine from Dell Outlet for about $495 after tax. I used a Dell Outlet coupon.

    Buy the R1. It is really cheap. Also search on ebay, maybe you find a better deal...

    had some base r1's on dell outlet for $599 and a 20% off coupon last week.
    so $480 + tax/shipping is the lowest i've seen recently

    I wouldnt get one from ebay.... they are selling r1's on ebay for the cost of a new r2, r2's are selling for the price of r3's.... ebay is all backwards on these little computers.
