That would be awesome bro! If it ain't too much to ask, I'd really appreciate that. Because if HK won't be an option I'll be looking out for alternatives (like making friends with US people lol).

it's fine...besides, it's near my house anyway, within walking distance...i go there sometimes to check out new electronic stuff anyway...but honestly, i don't think you might get it in Broadway though....

It's still great so at least I can rule out Broadway as a possible source. I've heard from friends that they heard there's like a Dell or Alienware distributor in Tsim Sha Tsui? I dunno how true that is she may just be talking a load of bull, but whatever, I guess it won't hurt to try once I get there.

Hong kong also over price d

DocLem. pm me if you need my help to order from DELL Malaysia as Im a frequent traveler Phil, Msia ...

Im staying at Makati tho, when Im at Phil.

Well, i never heard of any distributors in TsT though....but you can check it out once ur here i guess?

well, i think Malaysia is trying to be tax-free in the electronics dept i guess....even Apple products are considered cheapest in the region if not mistaken.....

Hi tUps, thanks for the offer, but I don't think I'd be able to give you anything back

@putochip: Well, not as overpriced as here in the Phils

Before anything else I'd like to thank you guys for the quick and helpful responses, this sounds like an awfully nice community

if u need purchase can look for me, i can help u ^^

But he said delivery to the Phils is already problematic~ Unless you can fly there and meet him personally~

Yup, it's very problematic. The tax is astronomical, and in the first place I'm gonna need someone to send it to me since Dell doesn't send directly to Phils. And the retailers who sell here overprice too much (RM 5600-6300??).

i can handle that, will ask somebody to hand;e

How would that work putochip? I'm trying to cover all my bases here

Doc, i haven't go to broadway just yet, a bit caught up with work, will inform you shortly.

Guys, those with the m17x R3, any issues so far?.....i'm gonna receive my next week, and i'm already trying to stock up games to play...i might buy COD black ops this weekend, and maybe pre-order the witcher 2...

Hey bro, no sweat You're doing me a huge favor already, thanks! Looking forward to some good news.

Damn, it's so frustrating for me here, I've been on Google scourging for solutions to this problem, and I can't find one to suit my needs short of having a trusted friend abroad who'll go home here to the Phils (which I presently don't have). This HK trip is my best chance.

do u guys know any seller that sell m11x r3 in lowyat forum?

U gonna face overheat issue like mine, but still doesn't effect any performance, no throttling. Other stuff is nice....

haha, well, honestly, Dell's marketing strategy mostly focuses on using online selling and stuff, hence i think if you want to get it in retail shops...it's a little bit skeptical, and by the way, if you're getting the laptop in retail outlets, i think the specs are most probably not what might want....

Overheat issue?!....hmmm...is it advisable for me to get the cooler master pad then?....

no need, just keep eye on dell update website to have BIOS update. the heat issue is because of fan problem which only spin when the GC and proc is vry hot

Yup, a bit of overheating when i play crysis 2
overall it is awesome

I feel like getting tron keyboard
should i?

oh, alright then....it's gonna come next wednesday....so excited just by thinking about it...xD!!!
