    Hey guys, I'm ready to purchase an m11x and I'm just waiting to snipe a decent deal. I always see people from the states getting amazing deals, where as I have to order from Dell Canada where coupons and deals are usually lackluster. I got offered 100 dollars off and a free tactx mouse for the m11x I wanted.

    So what's a "good deal" for you? And do you think I should take up the rep on that offer?

    Dell catalog shows E-Value codes for M11x
    Find this code and type it into the search window at the Dell site.
    I found good deals that way.

    There are 3 E-Value codes in June 2010 catalog.
    M11x:
    i3 8gig 250hdd $1049 E-Value code: 6F999-DKPCMU2
    i5 4gig 250hdd $999 E-Value code: XXXX-DKPCMU3
    i5 8gig 240hdd $1199 E-Value code: XXXX-DKPCMU2

    So type in XXXX-DKPCMU2 and see what happens ;)

    Is there an online catalog? And this needs to be for Dell.ca so the America. Stuff won't work.

    Just go give you an idea of what I paid:

    i7 640UM
    4GB RAM
    320 GB 7200RPM HDD
    Bluetooth

    $1158.05 before tax
    $1308. 60 with tax (HST 13% Ontario)

    There was some sort of sale for $150 off + I was able to get 5% EPP.
    For the EPP, I gave them the name of the place I use to work, and my old work email address.

    Canadians get screwed for all the good deals.
