Just spoke to the dell guys now, I will get a 5% corporate discount :D.

But they can't ship in kolkata, or atleast they need me to get them some sort road permit for them to ship to kolkata. That sucks!!

I have talked to Dell Sales Representative regarding the discounts.

They told 3% discount for purchase of 35K - 55K and 5% for purchase of >55K because my family member is in govt service and not because I am a student.

It's only with core-i5. And not available for now, according to one of this forum user who taked dell india about this. The weight is 3.4kg which affects in portability. All'n all getting GT 650M in 65k is steal at this price tag.

Well, for gaming purposes, will the processor effect a lot? I mean, if I play, for instance BF3 for two hours or so on an average per day, will I see much increase in performance with the i5? As for weight, I guess that's managable, it'll most probably be sitting on my table, on not doing much travelling till my vacations :razz:

I talked to some reps as well, yesterday and today, and they told me it would take three weeks for delivery, as it "has to be shipped from Malaysia" -__-" But otherwise, will this be a good future proof gaming device? Or should I opt for the 15R SE? As far as benchmarks are concerned, the 650m beats this hands down, but will the ppi be noticeably lower?

Good to see dell is providing laptops from malaysia, it would be definitely of better quality. Dell India degrade the quality in customization if customized in india, hope they get this, thats why taking from malaysia.

If you don't care about weigh of the laptop. Get it ASAP!!

Dell India is not responsible the state govt is charging taxes for this.

@Rider, sorry to pester you mate, but yeah :p I saw on the spec sheet for the 17R SE that it came with a 10/100 ethernet port, while the 15 R SE comes with a 10/100/1000 port. Will it change anything in my connection to the internet if I want to play online?

Does anyone have any idea when Flipkart plans to procure them? I mean, even Dell India reps say it'll deliver in only one month :-? Should I order now, and wait for it to come, or order off Flipkart? Cause flipkart usually delivers within the week :-?

No, I don't think so all laptops have same ethernet ports you would get same speed in all. :-D

To be more clear, ask someone who knows about networking.

lols.. not sure right now.
Spoke to the Dell guys just a couple of minutes earlier. FYI the actual costs of these special editions are 8K less than being charged. E.g. core i7+4GB cost is Rs. 49773.95.
The extra Rs. 5652.67 is the countervail duty and Rs. 2803.91 is the central service tax.

And then add 5% VAT to it. DAMN!! :O
