Where are the speakers located?

It's at the front bottom.At 1520/1720 you can see clearly at the bottom picture 1 and 4 .Sorry to say it's a very poor design on thier speaker ,surely the sound output will be block a bit.
Some updates , there will not be 8600M GT avaliable. Only GMA X3100, nVidia 8400M and the nVidia 8600M GS avaliable.

silver color keyboard? i got a feeling it still will look cheap...hehe..i prefer black!

The thing that I wasn't sure are the processor they offer

Intel Core 2 Duo
2.2 GHz, 800 MHz, 4M L2 Cache (T7500)
2.0 GHz, 800 MHz, 4M L2 Cache (T7300)
1.8 GHz, 800 MHz, 2M L2 Cache (T7100)
1.66 GHz, 667 MHz, 2M L2 Cache (T5450)
1.5 GHz, 667 MHz, 2M L2 Cache (T5250)

If those 2 were offer... I don't think it cosider santa rosa...

Why is it called hides instead of cache?

Sorry wrong spelling , i had fix it thanks for telling

I wonder Dell would consider adding a 8700M GT into the 1720, or perhaps an 8800M when it comes out?

And it appears Dell has decided to kick DVI out of the 1720, sad thing to note, as the 1720 is suppose to be a multimedia laptop, now how can I connect it to a big flat screen without the DVI, VGA doesn't seem to cut it these days..

wah lau all so cool...

i just bought 6400 last month.. should've waited!! arghh!

thins the new laptop will be very expensive, cox they have nvidia 8800 ........price will be very scary

but damn...i noticed the weight on the specs sheet...3kg?? wtf tats really heavy for 15.4inch man...perhaps its mistaken for 1720???

still consider santa rosa as it still on 965 motherboard. But a cheap scale just no 800 fsb. But this is really a turn off if offer 1.5 or 1.66 not much processing power, if this offer at 2k then i would not mind over 2.5k isk... not worth it. At this moment the configuration surely will not differ from current core2duo, initial configuration surely no robson, no draft N, but include x3100. so i don't believe the price to be higher than current price.

Current 6400 is around 2.9kg, that is normal for 15"

kinda confuse here,so new inspiron got three type la rite?14.1",15.4" and 17".correct me if im wrong

erh...yeargh....sort of...

the wan start with 15** is a 15.4inch model...in malaysia they name it as 6000 series...
17** is a 17inch model = 9000 series...hehe..

@kwws

normal laa....6400 minimum weight 2.9kg edy...9cell batteries 3kg++...heavy laa wey...hehe...

thx bro.i guess now its time to get myself a new lappy

Wait a bit latter you can have a quad core laptop hahaa

Other manufactures have their 15.4" notebook lighter than Dell's. Maybe Dell doesn't want to spend too much in keeping the components smaller.

Acer gemstone is not light also 15.4". This type of laptop is due to cases material, most probably got stone inside so won't easily get blown by typhoon. I might suggest it due to heatsink.

I might add the size is fix at 15", my opinion no need to reduce the component even if the whole motherboard is at a size of peanut it can still be 3kg. I guess they should start hiring Nasa to build a feather weight laptop.

gosh....these models are going to be the nicest Inspirons ever!! like to various colours of LCD cover..looks like the Vaio.

thumbs up for Dell! Inspirons are getting hipper & more vibrant styles. (not forgetting great performance too!)

anyone selling off their 6400 or 640m to get these??

ps : is the materials used still plasticky or some alloy has been used like the current XPS??
