hp pavilion dm1z: Verizon's First 4G Laptop is Overpriced, Here's Why

28.07.11Verizon's first foray into outfitting a laptop with its 4G LTE wireless broadband worship army comes via a partnership with Hewlett-Packard. 6-inch HP Pavilion dm1-3010nr with a built-in 4G antenna. You can buy scarcely the identical laptop directly from HP for $420 along with HP's HSPA+ adaptation built-in wireless antenna for $75. Why Verizon is not pricing its first wireless broadband-well-disposed laptop more aggressively is a head scratcher. With Verizon's proposal that comes with built-in 4G broadband, you can surf the Web on Verizon's dm1 up to 10x faster than 3G wherever you have access to Verizon's 4G LTE network. The HP dm1z scored drugged points with PCWorld for offering a lot of bang for the buck , but Verizon's thumping $600 price tag severely cuts that value proposition. The dm1-3010nr is within reach directly from Verizon for $600 with no contract. For that fee you get a lightweight laptop (okay, netbook) with an AMD Fusion processor, a 320GB severe drive (7200rpm), 2GB of RAM-and the built-in broadband piece. You pay for the 4G (or 3G, if 4G isn't available) service month to month: $50 for 5GB or $80 for 10GB.
