this deal is NOT dead. The deal on fatwallet for the sony "rewards" card is dead. The "Sony Card" is different from the "Sony Rewards Card". The Sony Rewards card deal was a little better because you could use it for at amazon and combine it with a deal the have going on to get $100 off when you get 4 Blu-ray dvs. Its still a damn good deal. I just got a PS3. I don't play games but the PS3 is one of the best Blu-Ray players and it can stream content from your pc (which was one of the big +) of the PS3. I also ordered the bluetooth remote. The only negative i can see with the PS3 really is it cant pass HD audio via bitstream only PCM which isn't that big of a deal unless you get mad that your TRUEHD light doesn't show on your receiver...either way your going to be listening to TRUEHD.

Oh yes you have to also use ebates when you do this offer because you will get an extra 4% off which almost made up for the taxes.

Thanks NCage,

So, I did get the Sony Card, during the 150 off deal.. does this mean i have to use it at sonystyle to get the 150 off 299 purchase? Or can I use it for the amazon deal? I was about to purchase the amazon deal, which is awesome, but if the card will not apply the 150 because I did not buy from sonystyle, then i will not do it.

Thank you.

JC

I think it might depend on which offer you received, or maybe not. I read that Sony affiliated stores were also eligible, of which amazon is one. Read the FW thread I linked to above.

Ya that have lowered the rebate from $150 to $100. Its still a good deal though. As far as i know you can only use this through sonystyle. Even when you apply for the card and they give you a temporary credit card number it states you can only use the temp number on sonystyle. I think the sony rewards card was the only card where you could use it on amazon and even with that people said they had to go through a big ordeal to get the CC company to credit them the $150. I think maybe that had to fax the receipt to the cc company. I didn't want to take the chance and opted to purchase it off of sonystyle.

I took advantage of this a year ago when it was $150 off $300.

Got "free" computer upgrades ;)
