Most people know to add sales tax unless it's Dell Home.

Of course I never have to pay sales tax regardless of where I order from.

:D

Still waiting on mine plus the card from Officemax... In the meantime, anyone know of a good adaptor for this camera? I heard it eats batteries pretty quick so for indoor shots and practice shots, I wanna use an adaptor. The Canon one was expensive so I'm thinking of getting a generic one.

Instead of using an AC adapter I would strongly suggest getting rechargeable NiMH batteries. What's your budget?

Well I'd like to spend under $40. How much is a charger/rechargables gonna set me back? What's a good brand? I just liked the thought of using a adaptor since I would have to constantly worry about draining the batteries. Thanks!

Unfortunately, the money juggle never worked out in time to get this camera last week. :( Kinda baulking on purchasing now and still having to spend another 50 on capture card and 40 on batteries. I would like to have a good camera by mid september to take with me to Disney.

Ah well.

Well, just to let everyone know...

The AUstin TX ad for this camera includes a 64MB compactflash card. Not as good as last week, but at least it is something.

D'oh I forgot about price matching ... damn that's a nice deal if OfficeMax.com ever gets this camera back in stock and ships to those who are on back order status.

Those of you who received this for $190 after PM & coupon WITH the FREE 128MB CF I am VERY jealous of you guys ...

It says on OM's site that they will add next day shipping charges, which that yahoo store doesnt list...you think they'll just forget about it? ;)

Any success with purchasing now with PM and Coupon? If so, is there the possibility to get it with the 64meg CF card bundled in? My local OM sucks and i couldn't find any circulars at the store to verify if its in my area (Pittsburgh). Please drop me a PM if possible...i will be all over this like deals on a Rossman :p

I know they'll just forget about it... ;)

(In the PM request form, just type "not shown" for shipping charges.)
