http://h50198.www5.hp.com/Store/default.as...s+for+Notebooks

it is DDR 667 SODIMM RAM..max support up to 2 gb ram

Thamk u all for the info.This offer is very tempting.Especially for ppl who had a lot of commitment.Gotta check out the best offer for RAM.If buy RAM directly frm HP ,is itpossible?

no offence, some same spec like Lenova pricing at Rm2199, 2day Carrefour ad if not mistaken

Better buy direct from HP dealer and you can get it from mobility square in lowyat. Try to get the same brand of ram from them as i had experience conflict using other brand ( kingston if not mistaken ). You can purchase you extended warranty from them too. I got 3 years warranty at the price of RM 300. ( okie what happen to my original one year free warranty , shouldn't i get 4 years then , got to ask HP ) and 512kB ram at RM 200. You definitely need extra rams.

Wah.You referring to HP Ram huh?512 mb for RM 200?Not cheap ler.Compare to kingston.Can get 1 GB for the same price.

Here is the spec of the notebook from HP, is tated DDR2 SDRAM 667Mhz, two SODIMM slots

For the HP care pack, RM 200 is the reseller price. The notebook reseller price is RM 2500, recommended selling price RM 2699. HP smart phone 512 messenger reseller price is RM 899.

EM993AA 512MB DDR II module (667MHz) = RM140
EM994AA 1GB DDR II module (667MHz) = RM280

this is price for HP original RAM,but normally u can get 512MB@RM80/1GB@RM150 at retail shop in low yat...install others brand RAM wont void warranty

Lenovo Y400(945448A) come with intel T2080(1.73GHz,1MB L2 Cache,533 Mhz FSB) and without OS.HP 520 come with intel T2050(1.6GHz,2MB L2 Cache,533 Mhz FSB) and come with Genuine Windows Vista Home Basic

buying Kingston SODIMM DDR667/DDR533 RAM and install to HP 520 wont have compatible problem and wont void warranty.actually your notebook will have 3 years warranty after u purchase extended warranty is 1 + 2 = total 3 years

make sure u all purchase the right extended warranty

lawsh, how ur EDGE performance??

eh, how much u let go ur iPAQ 512??

Hi all,

Hp called me for the upgrade of ram and extended warranty,

512mb ram - RM 140
3 yrs extended warranty - RM 220

Samba is a modem that you need to use it to access internet one . So please remember what i say about the modem (samba) with Hp Notebook . Regarding your case i think you better chase HP,cause everything will deliver from Hp Not Digi... But at first you have to make sure that Hp had get approver from your bank. That is the first thing.

Added on July 29, 2007, 1:06 pmThis offer not bad... so what you think? Will you take this offer ?

This post has been edited by TuanKing: Jul 29 2007, 01:06 PM

based on a forumer/dealer seling price of the notebook and smartfone are rm2400 and rm930 respectively, the cost of both items are rm3330. Digi is giving us all these for a total of rm3876.

therefore for an extra of rm546, we get to use Digi's EDGE and rm300 talk time rebate (rm50 x 6 mths) and free rm20 access fee ..............all these for a total of 24 months...........

IMHO it is really a GOOD DEAL

So Samba is the 56Kmodem that comes together (build-in) in the notebook??Y can't install? Had u received your notebook & HP? Pls tell me in details from steps 1 to final steps. It is because, i call HP. They said, my name is in the system. But i need to get the Sim card first before they can proceed. Then i call Digi, they said SIM will ONLY issued after i got the goods from HP. So, who are correct?? Pls help me......It is already 7 days passed. I sign up on 23/7/2007.

Added on July 29, 2007, 3:38 pmBut the Digi guy at Digi Special store said the Sim card only issues after i got the goods from HP... Why can't HP provide me my order #?Is it my bank haven approve this purchase yet? How to chase bank for the approval?I am using HSBC Credit card

This post has been edited by sugen: Jul 29 2007, 03:38 PM

Normally it will take 7-14 days for approver and another 7-14 days Hp deliver the notebook to you. So 14 + 14 = 28 days.almost one month you just will receive all the things (Sorry to tell that. P/s:My Opinion). Besides that, Modem ( Samba ) will be separate with your Hp notebook.. Not a build in one, is external one ( Usb ). For the installation, i think you better ask someone pro or Hp customer service set for you better. As i know, if under Windows Vista, Modem ( Samba ) can't be support it or will spoil your notebook too.

hey its easy,

i hav a edge fone Nokia 7270i and am willing to exchange wif any samba users here. then the user can use nokia pc suit on Vista to get connected.............

Normal prices for the Samba Modem is around Rm 1099 or Rm 999..Ya is a usb Modem..so you can use for you PC or Laptop..

Added on July 29, 2007, 9:56 pmAfter some survey, now i know what is Samba. It is a GPRS modem. But i have question here, don't our Free HP is an EDGE/GPRS phone. And i believe we can use the phone as a GPRS/EDGE modem and connected via USB cable or via bluetooth to the notebook(using bluetooth dongle). That is all ! Why we need to use the USB Samba modem?? And is the USB Samba given free?

This post has been edited by sugen: Jul 29 2007, 09:56 PM

..............

samba is a modem that will allow u to insert the simcard inside it....

samba is an EGDE with class 32 comparing Ipaq 512 that only EDGE Class 10.....in term of speed connection..Samba is much more better (theorically)....

Ipaq come with free voice plan for 6th month..samba doesnt...


i think u need more survey.....lol
