Jul 21st 2008 2:15PM Fujitsu and Sony (longtime owneres/makers of the EXTREMELY overpriced ultra-portables market) are concerned about new, efficient and low priced ultra-portables entering their market...
...I really can't say I care how they feel about that.

NVIDIA says "significant quantities" of laptop GPUs are defective, stock tumbles {Engadget}

The difference between the DV6000 and DV9000 isn't the time of it's release, it's size. They were both released at about the same exact time. The DV6000 is a 15.4" model and the DV9000 is the 17" model.
I agree with KeegdnaB and Jeff regarding the HP DV series. I was told by an HP "case manager" that HP has a sort of "internal recall" regarding the DV2000 (14.1"), DV6000 (15.4"), and DV9000 (17") series laptops that are Nvidia based. I have had to send in 8 of these over the last several months already for repair/replacement (all with the Nvidia 6150 chipset). Most issues were due to overheating and/or the wifi becoming unrecognizable, even after a module replacement. They will even do the repairs out-of-warranty.
So Nilay, there's a definite answer for one of the affected chipsets I think.

EasyChair WorkStation solves that whole "get out of bed" dilemma {Engadget}
Jun 27th 2008 2:20PM This is true. I have a family member who is disabled and has a very difficult time getting out of bed. It seems the trolls who typically post to this site haven't a clue about life beyond their computer screens. So yes, this is a good idea for those who "need" something like this. Not JUST lazy people.
