Buy A Nokia N97, Get A Dell Laptop Free

exclamationAlas, before you rush off to hammer the local Dell website, it’s an offer valid only in the US.  The logicbuy website shows one such deal, only for today, the 1st of July, where you get a free Dell Vostro laptop if you buy a Nokia N97.  Total package price?  US$ 730, approximately RM 2,571.  What a bargain, and what a great big pity that we will never ever see such deals in Malaysia.  Admittedly the Dell laptop is still a very low end version, but hey, as long as it works, runs Windows, can run Firefox and office productivity applications, who cares?  A working laptop is still a working laptop.  It’s a Dell Vostro A860 – Celeron M M560 2.13GHz, Vista Basic, WiFi, DVD Burner.

And should you so wish, get rid of the laptop on an online auction site, recoup maybe US$ 200 for it, and use it to defray the cost of the N97!  What else can be better in life, apart from maybe a hot date with Megan Fox?

So, I wonder what this means?  Is the Nokia N97 selling poorly in the US?  Or is the Dell Vostro that’s selling badly?  Or both?  What do you think?
