    What's the button on the side of the indicator lights opposite the power buttons? I'm so blind it looks like it says 'MapQuest' to me. xD!

    @Metamorphical: It's "MediaDirect".

    Why didn't Dell put any VGA card's stickers on their lappies? No ATi, no GeForce... nothing but "Design for..." and "MOBILE TECHNOLOGY" :( .

    @Alpha2006: Your E1705 has a matte screen? How's the resolution?

    Dang, all the laptops from dell looks exactly the same. There is no difference between 9300, 6000, e1705, all the other ones.

    Nice machine anyway, but I rather dislike overall 'white bumper'...

    Yeah, all they did was redesign the plastic part for the media direct button. Everything else the same.

    They also changed the arrows on the touchpad from the obnoxiously huge arrows that are on the 9300.

    Card reader is different as well... it no longer "hangs" slightly, its now flush with the rest of the system.

    very cool, thanks for the pics and let us know how performance is once it's not a "disabled hooker"
