At that price, the $970 baseline DX730 and its larger screen looks like a fairly priced deal compared with the DX1210, but we're interested to see the price increase and what other features might come along with the Core i7-based version. Presumably we'll find out when the DX730 goes on sale, at Best Buy only, on October 2.
