HELLO,
THIS IS NOT A CUSTOM MADE NETBOOK. ALL THE SPECIFICATIONS MENTIONED IN THE
WEBSITE ARE CORRECT. IN THE EMAIL SENT EARLIER IT WAS MENNTIONED THAT IT IS
COMPATIBLE WITH A 3 g CONNECTION. YOU CAN GO BY THE OFFICIAL WEBSITE
DESCRIPTION AS FAR AS THIS NETBOOK IS CONCERNED.
you need to deposit the price of the netbook that is Rs. 11500 alongwith the
application form. therefore, I am afraid you will have to visit the nearest
DFI centre at the earliest with all the documents and money in hand.

Subject: Re: [AI] Great offer: Netbook at a special price
Hello sir,
I'm interested in purchasing this wonderful netbook but have a few
doubts which I would like to clear before submitting the form.
1. In the specifications, I couldn't find bluetooth, 3G & GPS on the
official Samsung page, i.e.
http://www.samsung.com/us/consumer/office/mobile-computing/netbooks/NP-N150-JA01US/index.idx?pagetype=prd_detail&tab=spec
So, I'd like to know is this some sort of custom made netbook
different from the official version?
2. After downloading & filling the form, am I supposed to take it's
print out and speed post it to my chosen DFI organisation or can I
email this application as well along with my disability certificate ?
The reason why I ask this is that email is much more efficient than
post, and I don't want my application reaching office after the scheme
has elapsed.
Regards
Arpit Jain

Personally, I think that the Netbook is a great device and can serve all
the
reading and writing needs of any individual. I have purchased this
Netbook
few months earlier and I am in love with the portability and independence
it
offers. So, I suggest you grab this offer before it ends. Remember that
the
subsidy is for a limited number of Netbook and it will not be available
at
this price after the scheme ends.
Thanks and regards
