That LiteOn SKU isn't found at the OD web site. Either I'm searching wrong or maybe it is only available in-store? Could you tell me what LiteOn model it is? Thanks! BBE

How about details for the LiteOn special? Thanks.

Do you have a link for the OD special, or is it only in-store? Is there anything on-line that shows the details? Thanks!

So CC will pricematch to BB even though BB's 'price' includes rebates? Also, does your message imply that the supply of WD 200GB-in-160GB-boxes is at more retailers than just BB? Thanks! BBE

How are they doing this? Does CC have a current ad showing the 160 for $100?? Will BB pricematch that? Thanks! BBE

Anyone know of any Minnesota locations with the 200s? I've checked 4 now (north metro area) and all had 160s only. Even had a couple of the sales guys up on ladders looking through the overstock on top of the aisles! No luck!! JimmyK - I'm up for one at $108 if you can find any more later...

I checked 3 stores in the Minneapolis area and none had any 200s in 160 packaging. Rats! We're right by the corporate office; how come we don't get the super deal??? :( BBE

<< GPS deal is not valid on this notebook. >> Yeah, I tried that too. They got wise and cut that deal off for any eBay purchases. The lucky folks who bought early and got the GPS should be thankful!

<< Now I am waiting for my 512MB from Dell. >> Which model ThinkPad did you get? Most of the newer ones max out at 512MB and come with one (of the two) memory slots filled with the standard memory, so you'll be throwing out a chip to add your 512MB.

<< BigBlueEdge I am considering buying ThinkPad A or T series from somewhere. I need DVD, Ethernet built in, and larger screen than 14.1 hopefully 15. When I searched for ThinkPad deals here, your thread came up. I do not like auction very much, buy I like Ebay's buy it now. I keep watching buy...

<< Those IBM &quot;Buy It Now&quot; auctions charge you over $40 S/H and 6% tax. They put that in fine print. You have to add like $100 or more. >> Definitely true and good to consider before buying... but, when you consider that the price of this particular A21p is $1619 vs a street price of...

<< Just got one at http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;item=1250838521. But the problem there is no field to allow me input the credit card info. SO I got an email to say I will pay it by check. Any 1-800-number to allow me give IBM the cc info? Thanks. >> Yes, the initial...

Keep watching eBay daily - IBM is dumping lots of these units lately. They seem to start up 'Buy it Now' auctions each day and end them within a few hours to a day or so, regardless of how many units are listed. If you're looking for a certain combination you could check completed auctions...

From what I can figure out about the 'buy it now' auctions of new IBM hardware, they have the standard machine warranty on them. For the A21p units in question, that means a 3-year warranty on the entire unit except for the battery, which is 1 year. But I'm not IBM, so this may be wrong.

These are really cheap-o cameras. I purchased one from eToys as it went out of business for about $20. Certainly isn't worth much more than that. If you want a cheapie for the kids to play with or to keep in the glovebox of the car or something, then give it a shot, but it isn't a substitute...
