Donna,
You are right, the 14 inch Pavillion HP I got does not have the 3G. I have had it for about a month, and this is the first time I realized not having 3G could be an issue. So for me who travels very little, it is not an issue.
For only 50 dollars more, I may consider it though when I get another one.
The 14 inch screen, solid state drive with quick upstart/downstop, and great remote desktop function are the big selling points for me. It works great at office and surfing the net at home, and watching Netflix up at grandma and grandpas.
I am a bit excited to see what Lenovo churns out in the next 6 months and may be the time to upgrade to the 3G model.
