HOT - Refurbished HP 2710p Tablet - $700 + S/H - Core2Duo U7500 60GB 1GB 12" WXGA WLAN BT + More Freebies

Thought it was a good deal. Why the thumbs down? Its a good light portable tablet. Under 4 lbs. Perfect if you want it to work and not game.

Probably because there is a deal through OD for a better configuration for $599AR. But I think that's sold out at most locations.

but the OD one does not have C2D. although yeah... think that one is more loaded except for the CPU.

I can't possibly think that a TL-60 is worse than a 1.2ghz Core2...but I could be wrong. I mean, I know they're on completely different levels (the TL-60 being about what a 1.5ghz would be) but down to 1.2ghz is kind of steep.

Good deal though for a business lapppy though

second thought, this is a smoking deal.

U7500 consumes 35% less power. This is more lighter. Get a whole bunch of free stuff.

Also the OD deal is long dead.

C2D is way better than a TL-60

It really depend on the speed of C2D. C2D is the best out there right now, but this C2D speed I dont think is better than TL-60.

It's lighter because it doesn't have an optical drive

. It also uses a pointing stick instead of a regular touchpad

^^ Dude, I think you're confusing this HP with a Thinkpad X series notebook. This one has both the touchpad and an optical drive.

woah...I think I repaired half of those laptops, haha. 2710p is my buddy. (:

I think he is right "there is NO touchpad or optical drive" http://reviews.cnet.com/laptops/h...31246.html

Yeah def a dealbreaker for me, I was about to order this and compare with the OD Tablet I bought this weekend and keep one.

About the weight, I think the OD tablet ships with a power saver sleeve of some sort where you can swap out the optical drive and save some weight, I could be wrong on that, I recall reading something to that effect on the OD deal thread.

Just out of curiosity...what is the return policy on these? This is pretty tempting...hate 1280x800, but this or the 2510 are both nice....hm.

Great deal	56%
Not a good price	44%
