and there's no E-350 processor available in pc fair...only C-50
*went to ACER to check on AO255...not available too...
*went to TOSHIBA to check if NB550 are in the market...

*then went to DELL booth to check out m101z...
and once again there's no E-350...only C-50!!

for asia market it just HP dm1
the different i got when i research it thru internet was
*hp dm1z std spec - came with 3G ram and 320GB 7200rpm
*hp dm1 std spec - came with 2G ram and 500GB 5400rpm

post a windows score

mine HP coolsense software working fine


p/s: have you update your driver/software with HP??

as for uninstalling some HP software...
right now i'm just doing it manually using control panel
still newbie on win7 experience....the last computer i got was using winXP

right now the only thing i uninstall were HP quick web...

congrat bro...
wow...got replace by a new unit???!!!
so are they replace only the back cover or the whole unit???
do anyone know how to open the back cover....
just curious...

anyone know where can i purchase a keyboard protector for our model???

yup...
because based on what i read somewhere in net....
the first batch their released in US came with RAM 3GB and HDD 320G 7200rpm
then they realised that many of user comment on battery life as it was not good as they advertise which is 9hour
so when the 2nd batch...they switch it to RAM 2GB and 500 5400rpm...

as for me...
i really satisfied with my new "netbook"...
but still hope that they can run a little bit "faster" when loading windows..

found something interesting...
MANUAL SERVIS GUIDE for HP dm1
http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c0266....pdf?aoid=35252

congrats bro...

yeah...
i'm too feel that the price a bit too "high" for AMD zacate APU notebook
and i don't think HP will held such promo for this paticular model...
because it still new in malaysia market...
but as you can see in HP site..
there's still no MSRP for dm1
http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/my/en/ho/WF...54-5032670.html
maybe they still reconsider the price

i'm too doesn't see any intake on this new HP dm1
so i guessing your right...
intake from keyboard...

p/s: no wonder i'm feel a little bit of heat on the vent after i put keyboard protector

sell your old laptop...
and get this laptop fast!!!
for me the best "netbook" were surpose to be 11.6"...
10.1" were too small

someone ask me about heat issue

hope it can help you guys to decide

fan noise
for me it is quiet OK...not so loaud...
except when it spin on full speed

congrat on your purchased!!!
yup...it's a BIG gap if you compered it with Intel Atom
how much it cost you with ram 4GB upgrade and extend warranty for 3 years???

p/s: thinking of getting those HP CarePack 3 yrs...but is it worthy??for extend warranty what do they cover??

yup...already think about it...
and i decide to extend my warranty to 3 years....
thanks!!

today i just purchase another 2GB stick...
tonight will see how it perform

UPDATE for dm1z user
HP has released a new BIOS ver.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwar...095731&sw_lang=

yup...10.1" for me also are too small
yup...you can purchase it online
http://h20386.www2.hp.com/MalaysiaStore/im...ent-notebook-pc

but i do believe that you can get much cheaper or more value added if you purchase it outside@reseller...
try PM hikari85 in garage sales under notebook@PDA..
i this reseller are from penang....

anybody a bit consern about this laptop temp...
after flash the new BIOS...my temp seem to be increase...
here are the screenshoot after 3 days straight....w/o switching off
doing some downloading, surfing net, watching video and play COD4(1.5hour)...



p/s: i've been wondered....is it amd APU e350 temp could be that high...and why we doesn't see much other brand apply it on their netbook(10.1")@subnotebook(11.6"-12.1")???
