M900?
Glad to hear that you solved your problem~ Cheers!

i just bough a toshiba protege t210 yesterday.
but after i register the warranty online, i notice tat my warranty starts on Aug 14 2010 until 14 Aug 2011.... y the date is aug but not dec? and is it got 1 year extra warranty if regsiter now?

or my new laptop is used?

Grats on the purchase! Heard that its an even better model compared to its predecessor Portege T130
I'm not really sure but I think the warranty will start from the date of shipping instead of the date of purchase... Not too sure though, its best if you can contact Teledynamics and speak to them about this, they should be able to extend your warranty until Dec

Edited: Just checked, ya you should get the 2nd year local warranty It will be good to call Teledynamics and confirm that they've registered your laptop for the 1st year international and the 2nd year local warranty

Hi...I'm thinking of getting a netbook.Whch do u recommend? I've asked around and the NB300 is highly recommended plus it's modem installed.

Hihi~

What's your budget for your new netbook? Toshiba's netbooks, even though more user-friendly; are outdated already... its best to consider Asus's netbooks instead... they are very well refined, better spec-ed and cheaper as well... Most of those netbooks have received plenty of very impressive reviews
But if your budget permits, its better to go for subnotebooks (11.6-12.1inch) in size instead, those are more powerful and more easy on the eyes

ya agree with u
especially t210 hehe

My budget's like below RM1,500....I need something that just fits into my handbag & I can bring it everywhere just like a handphone. My IT officer recommended Toshiba coz he said it's failure rate is low compared to other brands like Acer. And I just like the design...so classy and sleek ( in my opinion lah).I have a 14" Acer notebook which I use for work but I leave it at home or the office most of the time coz it's heavy & I hate carrying a laptop case around. I need the netbook mostly for surfing the internet.

Added on December 17, 2010, 11:19 pmAny recommendations for subnotebooks? Below RM1,500 ya. BTW I saw the Acer Aspire One range today & didn't like the design. I think for school children oklah coz the colours were so colourful & it looks so plasticy. I think I would hesitate to bring that netbook out in a meeting coz like not so professional looking. My opinion ok....

i check on9 again and the warranty is bac to normal oledi haha.
but only 1 year dun hav any extra...
mayb need to wait another day =.=
cos the website state that after 3 days only will show the correct info =.=

You should consider Asus's Eee PC, the netbook trend was initially started by Asus anyway... so they're the most seasoned and experienced in designing and building netbooks
I would recommend 11.6-12.1 inch subnotebooks instead of netbooks for better experience
12 inchers:
Asus Eee PC 1215T , AMD K125+ Radeon HD4200@RM1.5k
Asus Eee PC 1215P, Intel Atom N550@RM1.4k

10 inchers:
Asus Eee PC 1015PEM, Intel Atom N550@RM1.3k

Personally I would recommend the ones in bold... Good screen resolution, ergonomic keyboard, good touchpad and not to mention cheap hehe
Seriously worth considering ^^

Good to hear that the warranty has been updated. Do check after a few days, if its not yet updated then you'll have to give them a call, local warranty extension isn't cheap for Toshibas, so must appreciate when you got it for free

i tot get cheated by the seller haha
luckily~

but my battery performance max is only 2 hours =.=
is it normal? i suppose it can tahan longer is it?

Depends on what you are doing ?

just normal surfing with lowest screen brightness on power saver mode oledi...

+1 QFT, the battery will be able to last longer with Eco Utility on, setting brightness level to minimum and disabling/closing background, unused softwares
For instance I straightaway deleted the Toshiba Reel Time thingy which I don't think is useful at all haha, waste resources only

Try install batteryCare, and close the browser, and see how much is the discharge rate...

designed capacity 48600 mwh
total capacity 35856 mwh
current capa 15066mwh
discharge rate -7.1 W
wear level 26.22%

btw wad is wear level??

Wear level is how much has the battery lost its capacity compared to its original capacity...
and yours is too high for a brand new notebook

Try restart couple times and see if the wear level go down...

or is it too new so the batt not yet ACTIVATED???

Try use it for another day, if the wear level still like that or increasing, better go ask for exchange...

go to the computer shop that i bought my laptop for exchange? or need to go toshiba service centre?
