2597LMT has the all features, it looks like, selling for $149.99, brand new. The 2557LMT doesn't include BT. I would buy the most cheapest used. As long as it's in very good condition and has all accessories. This is pretty much what I've done and it works for me.

This information was probably included with the accompanying documentation (which was very scant, by the way, probably due to the fact that the device is a refurbished model). I no longer have the documentation, but I can ask a more computer-savvy person look at it and find out this info.

X2000 seems to have a bit more per channel power: 95w vs 75w. the 700 has 2 LFE subwoofer outs, the X2000 only one. the X2000 has front HDMI IN (camera) which I don't think the X700 has. think the 700 only gets a 2-year warranty vs 3-years for the X2000. I have my X2000 directly wired to my home WLAN AP and so WiFi is not an issue for me. I have Apple IOS Devices and Airplay does what I need - generally BT has more limit range and fidelity depending on the available audio profiles. Personally I would not base my decision on built-in WiFi & BT.

This is no big deal for me, but here are the differences. I own the 673The most significant change is that sixth HDMI input - the increasingly popular MHL (Mobile High-definition Link) connection to stream video and audio content directly from Android smartphones. It sits next to the `Made for iPod' USB input, which, as you might guess, charges and plays content from Apple devices.And if you're partial to listening to high-resolution music files, the USB port also supports FLAC and WAV files up to 24-bit/192kHz

I don't blame you for wanting to return it. Maybe return it and wait a few months, see if it improves.There are supposed to be "fixes" for WiFi, MySB, alarms, etc... in the just released SBS 7.4.2, but who knows.For audio quality I'd take the Boom any day! :)As for my Radio, it *never* loses connection to my WiFi (RED indicator), but I do get the occasional BLUE indicator (loses connection to MySB).My main issue is the "looks like it's playing but it is not" problem. Even then it is not as often as others have reported, for me anyway.I'm also running 7.5 beta and 7.4.2 beta so that may be why I don't have as many issues with the Radio as others, hard to say.

I actually switched from the 226bw to the w2207. I like the HP better because of the vivid colors and the swivel monitor. Also has additional usb ports on side and better menu layout and customization. Overall quality is the same, but the HP has more to offer.

im pretty sure that the 6200 will upscale also. i have the 6200 and i really like it. i think speakers, 7.2 instead of 7.1 and one more hdmi port are the main differences. keep an eye out at hhgregg bc thats where i got my 6200 for 487 plus tax.

I asked my brother, a computer geek and a doctor, and he said 1G is more than enough RAM. He also asked me how often I use a bluetooth for anything now and the answer is never. Every month there are new computer specs and better equipment coming out so I will never have it all. I think I worry about making a mistake and not trusting my own decisions. Did you get yours yet?

I got my 9-cell off of ebay and it was around 7-7.5 hours reported with wireless but no bluetooth, though I didn't actually use it that long. It does add a lot of weight, I think the battery might weigh almost as much as the laptop :D

I am at the same crossroad, but am beginning to step towards the N97 due to: (a)Full QWERTY keyboard, (b)faster processor, and (c)more memory, both internal and expandable. The widgets will be a nice touch too!

Bluetooth is already included -- that's the BT in the model number. The old version (not 310BT) needs an extra adapter.

The 775 has pre outs. If you have high wattage speakers then you can use an external amp to power them since most receivers these days don't supply enough power for anything other than entry level speakers.

I want to know the same thing. I would like to try the Bluetooth, provided the 265W is as good and reliable, and has as good reviews as the 255W. Anyone had bad experiences with the 265W?Thanks,Gary

Make sure you are not getting Windows XP as the operating system. It has to be At least Windows 7 or 8. Also make sure you get a bonifide Dell battery because the refurbished systems may be great, but the batteries are probably well used and awful. Also I think the bigger battery the better (like the one with 9 volts.) The three of these 620s that I have gotten have been great (though they had Windows XP which now makes them porous as Microsoft no longer supports XP) but I learned that I had to buy the extra batteries. They were all for African Students in Tanzania, and they have really been a good buy. But definitely not with Windows XP.
