Ok, so either I'm missing something or they've changed the offer (slightly). Ican get the laptop down to £339 but then they insist on charging me £60 delivery. Is there an additional code / coupon that needs to be entered to get free delivery, as the payment page is still quoting £398.

Did you go through the small business section?

I'm trying to get one too. I'm in the small business section, the update price page gives me "£289 VAT & Shipping NOT included"

Any ideas if its me or them?

** EDIT**

If you progress to the basket the free delivery come in. Doh!

90 day warranty, 15 inch screen, better battery, free delivery.
Comes to £386.00 Is that correct? Some of the earlier posts appeared like it was £339 for these specs but maybe for 14"
Just want to get it right before I pay up

Just spotted this post - looks good but did the first offer come with double memory as I noticed they're offering that one some of their laptops at the mo??

I'd love a laptop but can't decide wether to go for this one or wait and see what the January sales bring!!!

Was the standard 256mb on the original offer. You'd really need to upgrade this for Windows XP though as it runs like a dog with 256mb IMHO.

According to the site the 1300 has easy access for upgrading memory so if anyone decides to upgrade it, it shouldn't be too difficult.

The Original £339 price was with 14" screen and standard battery, the 15" screen added £30 and the other battery £10 (before vat)


Regarding other queries, the original spec was this
Intel Celeron M 1.4GHz
256MB RAM
40GB Hard Drive
8X DVD+/-RW Drive with Software
802.11b/g Mini PCI Wireless LAN Card
14.1" WXGA (1280x800) LCD Panel
Windows XP

The only change as pointed out earlier is that with the new code there is a cd-rw/dvd and not a dvd writer

Hi All
Many thanks for this thread - bought one yesterday with the larger screen but not the better battery (will always be at home anyway).

£375 for the lot inc del.

Cheers again

As far as I can see this is no longer available now....the evalue code (305 N12135b) still exists, but it no longer qualifies for free shipping.

Bit of a pain, I ordered 2 of these last Sunday (with the free shipping), but for some reason the order didn't completed in Dell's system.
