'lo there >>> the 398 is stock clearance price, rather than promotion price, >>> because the new model (798) is soooo much nicer >> >> I can do without the "soooo much nicer" and save the extra $400.
Yes, it's true that as long as you know what you want it for, the newer model can be overkill and the old one just fine. I had a bit of a jolt this weekend, when I told an acquaintance about the Eee, and she made up her mind to buy one on the spot. Tried it, liked it, put down the cash. Personally I always agonize for several weeks before buying something new and read all the specs 10 times. Unfortunately now I'm in the firing line for tech support. Do any of you know a shop at Sim Lim or Funan, or any other tech support outfit, that could help get a Eee online via a bluetooth GPRS/EDGE modem? Sounds like this is what she's using now. I want to get out of the firing line ;-p By the way, did any of you see this at the PC Show? http://www.wibrain.com/products/b1le.php?Top_Class=A&Left_Class=C Reviews say it's dorky, but I think it's sweeeet! Was selling for under $800 .. -- jean . .. .... //\\\oo///\\ _______________________________________________ Slugnet mailing list [email protected] http://wiki.lugs.org.sg/LugsMailingListFaq http://www.lugs.org.sg/mailman/listinfo/slugnet
