The Best Tech Deals of the Week

The Lenovo Outlet is offering the refurbished IdeaPad U350 13-inch laptop for $482, which is $147 less than the price of a new model. This configuration has a 1.3GHz Intel Pentium SU2700 ULV processor, a 13-inch LED-backlit display, 3GB of memory, a 250GB hard drive, and Windows Vista Home Premium. In our review of a slightly different configuration, we noted the laptop's excellent keyboard and solid performance.

Dell Home has the Dell Inspiron Mini 9 netbook for $207 including shipping, $40 under retail price. This netbook has a 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270 processor, a glossy 9-inch LED-backlit display, 1GB of memory, and a 4GB solid-state drive. Dell's superlow price includes Ubuntu Linux preinstalled; you'll need to move up to the Mini 10 or look elsewhere if you want a netbook with Windows XP. We liked the keyboard and the crisp display in our review of the Windows XP model.

Adorama has the factory-refurbished Nikon D90 12.3-megapixel digital SLR camera (covered by a 90-day manufacturer's warranty) available for $770 with free shipping, about $290 lower than this excellent model's retail price. The Nikon D90 has a 3-inch LCD, 720p HD video recording functions, in-camera image editing options, and support for a GPS geotagging adapter. Note that this offer includes only the body of the camera; you'll have to provide your own lens. We liked the D90's image quality, physical design, and ease of use enough to give it a PC World Rating of 88 (Very Good), which put this camera at the very top of our current DSLR chart.

This camcorder has a built-in 32GB solid-state drive, a Leica 12X-optical-zoom lens, optical image stabilization functions, an SD Card slot for additional storage, and an HDMI-out port. When we reviewed the HDC-TM300K, we liked the audio capture functions, the AF Subject Tracking feature, the excellent image stabilization, and the 10.6-megapixel still-image capability enough to give the camcorder a score of 81 (Very Good).

Abe's of Maine has the Canon PowerShot SX200 IS point-and-shoot camera for $289 with free shipping after you use coupon code DEALNEWS10. That's about $10 less than the price at competing stores, and $60 less than retail price. This camera has a 12X optical zoom, a 3-inch LCD, and an SD Card slot for storage. We particularly liked the high-quality zoom lens, the optical image stabilization, and the excellent image quality and battery life, and we gave the SX200 an overall score of 83 (Very Good) in our review.
