    I recently purchased the LG S1-P400A9 from Digital Office Systems for $1900 with free shipping. There website isnt the greatest but i called them to get some information on the laptop and they said they were liquidating all LG models. After looking at milestonepc's pricing, i was shocked to see laptops as much as 400-500 dollars cheaper. These guys are totaly LG authorized and guarantee to beat all prices. They are located in calgary, alberta, canada. Give them a shout at 403-255-0556, great customer service.

    Im totaly happy with this S1 and recommend it to anyone.

    Hmm, I looked on Google, and couldn't find the website. Could you supply it? And could anyone out there who has dealt with them comment on their experiences. I am currently in the market for a laptop, and would love to get one at a low price (LG is pretty expensive as is, and any discount would help :) ).

    Whoops - should have refined my search a bit more. The URL is http://www.digitaloffice.ca for those who are interested. However, it says that the LG S1-P400A9 costs 2500, not the 1900 you claimed. Am I missing something?

    Calzon_V: So are you saying you sent a price match from Digital Office Systems for the system in your sig? Or do you know of another place with cheap prices for LG laptops (particularly I am interested in the P1-P200A9)?

    Hmm... This is weird, I have e-mailed them asking about their most up-to-date price for the P1-P200A9, but no response. Naheed, is there any way you can help me contact them?

    Wow, you serious?!!! Most places are asking for $2200 CAD. You are sure it is the P1-P200A9 right?

    $1900 for a S1-P400A9 sounds ridiculous...
    Although it is a Core Duo (not Core 2 Duo) I didn't find any stores that sold it for under $2000

    If this is all true, then I would like to check how much they charge for S1-P402A9 (Core 2 Duo model).
    Is there a toll free line?

    Hmm, I got in contact with them - actually the price for the P1-P200A9 is 1600 CAD, which is a bit more reasonable, considering its discontinued. Right now, I am seeing if they will agree to using an escrow service (can never be too careful) - I will update as this progresses.

    Ok, well I hope this doesn't get me into trouble, but I would just like to update the current situation. The people at digitaloffice.ca have not responded to my e-mails, so I can only assume they weren't open to the escrow service (although I think its very rude to not bother sending a response to me stating their decision). As well, lifesgood has not responded to my repeated PM's. I guess I have no choice but to get a P1-J003A9 instead.
