HP Pavilion dv3000 Review – CNET Asia
A review of the HP Pavilion dv3000 laptop has been posted over at CNET Asia. ‘With a footprint of 320 x 228 x 38mm and tipping the scales at 2kg, it is debatable if the marginal reduction in size and weight from the larger 2.4kg HP Pavilion dv2600 is worth the smaller display. Like the rest of its Pavilion brothers, the chassis is decked out with the HP Imprint technology. Here, the Mesh design resembles a net laid across the top cover and palm rest. Though the exterior of the unit is an attractive glossy black, we got a shock when we peered inside.
This may be the first time we've seen a laptop palm rest covered with a shiny silver paint job. In fact, it's so reflective that this area can easily be used as an impromptu makeup mirror. It doesn't help that the glossy surface picks up prints easier than a forensic investigator. To be fair, the mirror finish may appeal to some users, so we suggest checking it out in person before shelling out your dough.’
