$700 for a 12″ tablet sounds like a better deal than $700 for Mini-Note.

Kevin,

Sorry for my email being a bit unclear. The SlickDeals post linked to the Clearance portion of the HP Refurbished Business Products site, which indeed only has one 2710p.

However, they also have Refurbished deals as well (detailed in the second post in the SlickDeals link), which has all of the other items. Currently, I still see several (15+) different configurations on that site. The list changes daily, I believe.

The item I got was part number 434567R-999-BY4Y, which has the following specs:

HP 2710p XPT Duo2 U7600 1.2GHz 80GB 2GB 12WXGA WLAN BT Cam Rmkt Tblt PC

As you noted, since this has a 6-3-4 part number, it was a returned built-to-order item, rather than a true refurbished item.
