Just got my XPS2, and let me just say it is AMAZING!
Haven't had time to do much with it. The screen (LG) is VERY bright and has amazing colors. As for sparkle, it has some, but it doesn't bother me! It is very fast and very responsive. It has very good sound quality for a laptop, and the subwoofer really adds to the quality. You can definitely tell some of the sound spectrum is missing, but I will be getting new headphones + a PCMCIA sound card, so I don't expect that to be a problem. The battery life seems like it will be quite sufficient for watching regular length DVDs, but I might have problems with longer movies. The lights are cooler than I expected! The case is very sleek, and as a whole, it is very light for its size. The keyboard is very responsive and easy to type on. I wish it had a number pad but I can live without one. The touchpad could be a little eaisier to use...maybe I just need to adjust it a bit/get used to it a little more. It came on time and very well packaged. Back to the screen, I love it so far. It is brighter than my current ViewSonic 18.1" flat panel, and so far, it seems very responsive for a 25ms panel. I have a lot of work to do this week, so I won't get to play with it as much as I would like. Feel free to post questions here, and I will try to get back later tonight to answer them. I would love to post pictures...but I don't have a very good digital camera/a place to post them.
