    After weeks of research and indeciveness between the HP dv1000 and the Dell I6K I finally bought the Dell this morning. The 34% off and sonomoa technoloy was too hard to resist.

    It is interesting that you and I came down to these two machines. The I6K is superior to the DV1000 for battery life, video, screen resolution and the solid feel to the case. You won't be disappointed.
