Dell's business-focused Latitude notebooks have long been one of Dell's best-selling categories and a mainstay of the corporate market. The latest of the newly designed Latitudes, the desktop-replacement D800 series, features a 15.4-inch wide-aspect screen and is the company's biggest corporate notebook. It's based on the new Pentium M processor, which gives it ample performance muscle, and depending on which wireless solution you pick when buying from Dell.com, you can get a full Centrino configuration. A few quibbles aside, this eye-catching notebook series is still one of the best corporate desktop replacements on the market. Fast performance, particularly with graphics; 15.4-inch, wide-aspect display; includes integrated dual-band wireless; common docking stations and media modules work in all D-series notebooks. But this new Dell Lattitude won't accommodate older Latitude C-series docking stations or media modules.

Gets too hot () 0.0 / 5 Mon 16 Mar 09
It gets very very hot at the left palm rest and dell can't help on this one as per them its a normal behavior of D800, i wouldn't recommend to buy this laptop at all, I think even D600 gets hot the same way.....

I'm sitting at a Latitude D800 (Pentium M, 2.0GHz) and the left "palm rest" is warmer than the right, but certainly not what I'd call "hot" (maybe 90-100*F). This is with the case open, using the builtin display, not an external monitor and in an office with an ambient of ~72*F.
