IWANNA: any decent deals on Comcast High-Speed Internet. the current promotions seem...lackluster compared to past promos. it's almost as if they want DSL/FiOS to steal all their customers!

i just realized that if you pricematch this to one of those other, more "disreputable" retailers, OfficeDepot matches the price AND will give you 15% of the difference, too. That adds up to a keyboard and $149997.78 extra spending cash after they match the price! YMMV!!!

Buydig lists the Dimage Xt (with return ship and handling) for $340.00. Not too shabby a price, and I'm tempted to go with this since the Dell deal has died (try saying THAT three times fast). Anyone have any experience with Buydig? Reseller ratings has a fairly decent rating for em...

<< well you cant get it for 106 anymore because buy.com isnt offering free shipping so they are gonna add shipping, good thing its a special order item and its ground shippin, 6 bucks. >> According to the CSR I spoke with when I did the deal, the shipping was free because it was an item that...

<< I tried very hard to stop laugh. Taiwan is part of China only it has been seperated from mainland because of dirty politics. Still the economic tie between the two sides across the strait is tight. If you buy a product from Taiwan, you are still paying your tribute to the so called...

I also have to say, I'm happy with this deal. Got it for $117 (damned Rhode Island Sales Tax) on the phone with a Staples CSR and grinning like a Cheshire Cat when the CSR was flustered with the stuff I was asking. In the end, she was nice and went through the deal with no trouble. One thing...
