I just bought my Lenovo G470 ytd at PC FAIR.. Everything is ok, but there is one thing that bugs me is that the wireless speed of this laptop, the speed is always range between 24mbps - 36mbps, even though i'm sitting just right beside my modem, the speed is very slow and it some how irritates me, any idea why is it like that and how to fasten it ? yawn.gif even my HP MINI that I got from TM has a speed of 54mbps when i'm quite far from the modem.

Here are the 3 variants of the Lenovo G470, do make sure you get the one with the correct specs:  nod.gif
G470, i3-2310M + Intel HD3000@RM1599, FreeDOS
G470, i5-2410M + Intel HD3000@RM1999
G470, i5-2410M + AMD HD6370@RM2299

I've seen the real things myself.... and I'm very impressed... Design is very good for a budget laptop at this price range.. Doesn't look cheap at all...
And the keyboard and touchpad, good.. Its good to see that the ergnomic Lenovo keyboards are available in almost all new Lenovo units  thumbup.gif  (They even have external keyboards with that layout, typist do look out for them hehe)
The design is good, looks slim at 1st glance, but if you look throughly, its quite thick haha  laugh.gif
I would say its a good lappy, but you might want to extend the warranty for peace of mind  nod.gif
