How does one buy the latest hardware release.

[DrD]

I want to buy another prime, also. However, I don't know of any way to purchase one on line, and to be assured of getting the latest hardware. If there were some sku designator, or model identifier, I would purchase it right away. I just don't want to mess around with exchange/return issues. Is there any SURE way to get the latest hardware?

For me, it's all about the 'visibility of the keyboard' hardware change that I actually want to purchase. It's disappointing that such an, otherwise, fine product, and bearing the hp logo(!), even has this problem. Requiring customers to buy it twice in order to resolve the hardware problem, says quite a lot about the ethic's change from the hp product standards, that used to define this company, and that I used to know.
