Well, as you may know, neither of the CompUSA's had any of these drives in stock, but they did offer to put names down on a list and then call when the HD's come in. I just happened to be checking out their website (trying to figure out if the WD 80g that's on sale tommorow was in stock & how much the rebate was for) and I decided to check if the CompUSA/Maxtor 80g drives were in stock. Low and behold, they were! So I called up the Honolulu store & asked if the SKU was in stock and he said according to his computer they were. So I took a chance & called up my best friend and we went down there. After beboping around for about 20 minutes, I went to the business counter and asked about my drive. They had a stack of around 10 drives or so and a big list on top of them. I was able to pick me & my wife's drives up and my friend got his. I asked him if they had called anyone, because I didn't receive any calls. The guy said they supposedly called over 100 people. Anyways, he said that the drives were probably going back on the floor within the next couple of days, so if you had one reserved then you had best go pick it up.
 
Great news, this might give me a good reason to go back to Hawaii, and I'll just have to stay a couple nights in Maui. ( Think my wife will buy this excuse ?? )
 
Wow, I thought about going done there at opening to snag one of these drives. Kind of glad I didn't now, I just hope they have the WD's in stock tomorrow. I reallized that I need a hd more than I thought.

Glad you got your drive for the advertised price though.
 
I dont think they called anyone because when they checked me off of the list I was about the 10th person or so and I didnt receive a call...
