dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted July 25, 2010 ^ both are 8 cell; only diff is capacity (4400mah to 5600mah) thats a whopping 27% extra Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anupe 14 Report post Posted July 25, 2010 yes dhirajbhai, difference in x1k and A1 is the battery.. my main requirement! lol arre yaar mere saath kareedhlo.. I will leave the unboxing HD video presentation to you though @ Dj: Boss, that caselogic attache is for 10.2 netbooks yaar. The UL30Vt is a 13.3 inch.. sahi honge ? & 200gm weight difference between 6 and 8 cell. Not much but the plus in power is just too good to ignore Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anupe 14 Report post Posted July 25, 2010 @Dhirajbhai: Ek our problem hai yeh glossy black finish notebooks ke liye.. they're fingerprint magnets. Silver finish doesnt show up that problem as much Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted July 25, 2010 ^ Black is NOT glossy... both are brushed aluminum finish... so no fingerprints on either... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anupe 14 Report post Posted July 25, 2010 (edited) ^ No yaar.. checked up a few forums reviewing it and youtube too.. it does attract fingerprints quite easily it seems. Anyways, I think the deal breaker between the silver and black is definitely the battery lol Edited July 25, 2010 by Anupe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dj 25 Report post Posted July 25, 2010 my bad... here is the case same hai but 14.1... good for lappy... DK... black brushed to hai but yeah it does show finger prints easily... i am against silver finishes considering i have a titanium cover limited edition thinkpad... so wanted a change and went with the black one !

Anupe 14 Report post Posted July 25, 2010 Thanks hitesh. I have been using 20North since last year. This time I'm picking it up thru MyUS though. Probably cheaper and faster. By the way I got dumped with customs duty for a 6k product by Customs last time when I ordered from 20North so their under 10k duty free gifting option is not entirely foolproof. Higher value product purchase this time so I'm going thru direct channel since I'll be paying duty anyways. 20North is good for below 10k value product. You have to take into consideration that they take about 20% margin on the base value so not worth it for higher value items. Thanks mate! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dj 25 Report post Posted July 26, 2010 price i enquired by 20 north was double then... dont go by them... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anupe 14 Report post Posted July 26, 2010 ^^ Absolutely true Dj. I think the net landed cost of the notebook would be in excess of 60k if I buy it thru 20North. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
