Keith, <Many of the users have gone to the X1000 forum and complained about problems with the keyboard firmware and apparent bugs inn the touchpad.

What does that have to do with the Centrino package, or with a recall of it? I rather looks like bad design work by HP.>

Nothing, necessarily, but the symptoms of the problems point to keyboard firmware and apparent bugs inn the touchpad

I could be wrong, but that sounds like chipset, MOBO, or driver design. Chipset is Intel 855PM. Going to be interesting to see how this turns out.

INTC's had some chipset problems in the last year or so IIRC.

When I look at the specs of some other Centreno notebooks it looks like they mostly have the 855PM chipset. Are other chipsets available for the Centrino or is it a package? Who would have designed the drivers?
