    Subject says it all - 1555 appeared in UK this morning but only has
    15.6in Widescreen High Definition (1366x768) WLED with TrueLife :(

    I posted about a week ago about WXGA+ suddenly dropping off the 15.4" version and was hopeful of holding out and getting a higher res option with the 1555. No such luck.

    Oops, subject doesn't say it all! Didn't mean to say "no discrete graphics" the subject, I meant to say "no 900p option". Brain in a muddle.

    We've got 900p and 1080p on the American site. It's probably just a parts shortage or logistics hiccup on your end; I'd wait a week or two and see if anything changes. You can pester Dell and ask them if or when they'll offer the higher-res displays over there. You could also ask someone in the US to buy it for you or buy it as-is and try to upgrade the display yourself.
