So I talked to a very nice girl today from corporate. She reviewed my case and was nothing but appologetic. She looked into the issues I was having with my A700. She looked at the records and said,"I'm sorry to tell you but we wont have more A700 units for 2 to 3 weeks. Darn, I guess I'll just have to upgrade you. Does that sound OK to you?" Well, what do you consider an upgrade from where I am? if it works half way its an upgrade.

She laughed and loaded me up with this!!!

I was speachless at what she offered it is much better then the original machine. I also will have Office 2010 Business pre installed and set up along with video editing software included.

I am still Shocked can't wait to get this thing and try it out... The reviews I have found have been great so far so I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that it all works out!!!

Oh, found a video of the thing to if you're interested!

OH, I forgot to mention that a quick call to Crucial to return the upgraded memory I just purchased for the A700 will be fully refunded. If you need memory products I would SUGGEST Crucial they were wonderful through the whole process
