    i purchased a 1420 over the weekend online, go a nice deal too.

    anyways i paid an additional 29$ for an extra ac adapter.

    on the 1420 page it says:
    90 Watt Spare AC Adapter [$29 or $1/month1]
    on the 1520 page it says:
    90 Watt Spare AC Adaptor with 3FT Power Cord [$59 or $1/month1]


    now my question. Why on earth would they charge that much more, if they are the same? I ordered the 1420 extra AC adapter with the intent on having a secondary in my backpack, but no extra power cord included?

    what the heck?

    i think its odd if they send it out without a power cord, i mean, who wants a second adapter without one?
