Hi George I've (just this weekend) got myself the HP Pavilion dv6-3122sa (X86_64). Granted, two days isn't a great deal of testing but thus far, it's proven to be a great piece of kit - Bluetooth seems to work fine, as does WiFi and the ATI card (via non-free drivers which simply requires a choice to use or not use through a pop-up). Unfortunately, I have no HDMI equipment to be able to test the port but at this early stage, I'm perfectly happy.
