It really bugs me that CompUSA's internal computer network can show an accurate report whether something is in-stock but they can't do it online.

340024 I beleive is H10L...I am not sure but you maybe able to flash this to H12L for 18x speeds...excellent burner as well

Well, their online inventory does say it's accurate as of about 3AM of that day, so if you're there at 11AM, things could be gone. I always call the store and ask before I go if I think they might be out.

That may be true, but I was there at 9:05AM for a store that opened at 9:00AM. There was not a single 34002 located in the combined 34002/340024 display-I took the first unit off that display. I stick by my conclusion that CompUSA's online inventory reporting is totally bogus.

Anyone tried G router? Price is tempting, however 60 days warranty is suspicious.

Apparently it is a Dlink router. Here are some reviews (favorable) by owners.

I picked up the router and the lightscribe DVD burner. To confirm: the Connect Computers Lightscribe SKU: 340022 is a BenQ 1655.

redondo beach, CA store had 3 lightscribe burners left at 2pm. they were up front near the entrance on a table with some sales items.

AdyG,
The Sony does DVD-RAM if that's a plus to you.

thanks Allisom. I made it there Friday evening. All the dvd burners were gone as well as the thumb drives. I did manage to get the pci video card to get my second monitor going again. I also got 2 of the 2 Gig sd cards. Nice deal without the rebate. I got 2 and someone behind me got the last one. I am wishing now that I bought it too. I didn't know the Wii could use it for memory. The Wii is still in the box waiting til monday. I have just been doing some reading online.

I'm so jealous. All the good deals seem to happen at store not in my town. We don't have Office Max, Office Depot, Target, ....

 

[hukim0531]

Oh yeah Frys Electronics.. Was one of my favorite store in Phoenix. Now I'm in VT.
