    When you say rebook of the order, do you mean the 2200 one mentioned elsewhere in the thread and if it is, is it at the same price as the 1150 and does it also include the printer?

    Yes I do, yes the price is the same and yes you get the free printer.

    And Yes this is a mega money saving deal since put the parts together separately and it comes to well over £1000!!!

    I too finally got my order pdfs today after a couple of days of phone calls, if anyone is still having this battle, make sure you check the processor specs, they tried to fob me off with a celeron processor but after a couple of phone calls agreed to supply the Pentium M (725) 1.6 processor, I also got 1280MB ram which was more than originally ordered so its a really good deal!

    I have email addresses, phone numbers and some useful info which will help you argue your case, if anyone needs help or advice PM me.

    Sent a complaint email on Wednesday evening (very strongly worded) had a telelphone call from India Thursday telling me the 1150 was no longer available, but if I wanted to look at purchasing another laptop they would give me 20% off the cost if over £480, I explained this was not good enough and after letting them know I was extreamley unhappy theyt said they would contact the sales team dealing with the 6000+ people who had ordered the same one and would tell them to prioritise me.

    Today I had a telephone call, same story about orders, then telling me the 2200 was on offer, gave the gen on the M715a processor and I interupted and said I was aware of people being offered the 725 processor, without an argument changed it to it, he then started to mention 512mb memory, but must have realised what was going to come next so went straight to saying 1280mb memory :) even getting the printer :)

    Best bit is, this one coming with a dvd writer where as it was only a cd writer in the other...and all for the grand total of £480.59 :):)

    Mine has gone from pre production to despatched within 24 hours, they are sending me a customer satisfaction survey too (should be fun)
    If anyone is still waiting I have a direct dial phone number for an irish sales person and will gladly supply it on a private message.

    I ordered four computers: 2 1150's, 1 5560 and 1 510m. All came with the Dell 922 printers. However in the adds I noticed (underneath the offer for the free delivery) they were offering a free Dell 720 printer. In the main order box for free printer it said free upgrade to Dell 922.

    In any case over the past few weeks I have been in "discussions" with Dell about the free Dell 720's. Well 4 have now been delivered for free and they have thrown in 4 USB printer cables as well, result!!

    Turns out my phonecall from Dell was about a box of weird cables. No idea what they are or why they sent them to me, though. I've got no use for them, so I chucked them in the bin.
    In a rut? Can't get out? Don't know why?
    It's time to make that change.
