In our Daily Deals blog we scour the Web to bring you the best bargains on laptops, phones, PCs, and other high-tech gear. Read on for the best of this week's finds, and be sure to visit Daily Deals.

Dell XPS 15 Core i5 Laptop, $700

XPS 15Dell's 15-inch XPS 15 laptop is designed for folks who like to play games, watch movies, and listen to music on their laptop--not necessarily for frequent travelers. When we reviewed the Dell XPS 15 we noted that the battery life is fairly short and the laptop is bulky. Still, if you don't plan to haul it around on business trips, this could be the perfect laptop for you--and now Dell is taking $100 off the price of four XPS 15 models. The base configuration that we reviewed is now $700, for example. Just use coupon code 932N$0ZCCHWZB9 at checkout and watch the price fall. Shipping is free. Note: This offer is limited to supplies on hand.

ViewPad 10 16GB Dual-Boot Windows 7/Android Tablet, $479

ViewPad 10ViewSonic's ViewPad 10 is a dual-OS tablet that runs on both Windows 7 and Android. It's got a 10-inch screen and Wi-Fi connectivity. When it was announced last year, it was called the ViewPad 100 and was slated to cost about $845. Since then the price has become more realistic, and the dual-OS ViewPad 10 sells for around $550 online. Buy.com has a great deal, though: only $479, with free shipping.

Panasonic Viera TC-L42D30 42-Inch HDTV, $743

Viera TC-L42D30The Panasonic Viera TC-L42D30 LED HDTV provides great simulated surround sound, yet we found its image quality to be somewhat lacking (read our review for details)--especially for the high $1079 at launch this past June. Right now, though, Amazon.com is selling the 42-inch Viera for only $743, and shipping is free. (Quantities are limited, though the HDTV was still available as of this writing.)

PCWorld Reviewers' Favorite Files: September 2011After Labor Day, productivity is key. Our reviewers especially liked email helpers, a business-worthy uninstaller, and a cloud-based organizer. Even the less work-related software here, such as a video converter and an international disaster alert program, does its thing efficiently. And when you're serious about games, check out highlights from PCWorld's old-School RPGs feature.
