    Hearing about the 1520 coming out on June 26th makes me anxious, but currently Dell has coupons that offer a tremendous and generous discount ($500) off for the current models like the E1505. Anyone have any idea how much the new models will cost? Will they be about same? Will they be cheaper? Does Dell usually have special offers for their brand new systems or will they be expensive at launch?

    Well, the E1505 has had discounts of at least $500 for a really long time now (there was a $750 off coupon at one point too). I don't remember the exact details with new product launches, but it shouldn't be that much more expensive than the current one, if at all.

    They're probably trying to get rid of 'old' stock. New tech is always going to be a tad bit more expensive when compared to current/old tech, no doubt.
