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.

Nikon D3100 DSLR, $550

Nikon D3100The Nikon D3100 is a great entry-level digital SLR camera. One of the few quibbles we had with the camera when we reviewed it last month is that it was a rather expensive $700. Right now, however, B&H is selling the Nikon D3100 for only $550--a great price for this entry-level DSLR.

Dell XPS 17 Laptop, $829

XPS 17If you need a laptop that's got the chops to replace your clunky desktop computer system, consider Dell's XPS 17. When we tried an Intel Core i7 model earlier this year, we liked its roomy keyboard, ample storage, connectivity options, and audio quality (read our review for details). Our test model retails for $1579, which isn't bad for a high-end desktop replacement laptop. For a limited time, though, you can get a similar XPS 17, with a slightly slower Core i5 processor, for only $829 from Dell: just enter coupon code 932N$0ZCCHWZB9 at checkout to watch the price fall. Shipping is free.

Dell XPS 8300 Sandy Bridge PC, $750

XPS 8300Dell's Studio XPS 8300 desktop PC won high praise from our reviewer for its capacious hard drive, connectivity options, and low price. That price is even lower at the moment, as Dell is selling the PC for $850, with free shipping. Enter coupon code LM?BF7P$FR9KCK at checkout, for a limited time, and the price falls to $750.
