You can get it at 389.25 with the $45 off $400 from the holiday game. I did that earlier today. Shipping was free, but I still got hit with $33 in taxes... Not a bad deal. It's a bit more than $100 less than the 2001FP, which was enough for me to justify going this route instead. I tried to get the extra $5 off for being a dell preferred member, but it just kept telling me the code was invalid. I probably should have called, but I didn't feel like sweating the $5. I just wish I was going to get it sooner...

[I guess I will get it sooner. They said it would ship by Dec 1st, but it's already on it's way to the shipper, so I might actually have it by Dec 1st!]

I have a 2405FPW at work. I hope I'm not dissappointed with the disparity between the two. :) Ether way, it'll be a nice upgrade from my dying cheapo 19" CRT.

I had trouble with the extra $5 also. My DPA codes had a lower case 'r' at the end that was not supposed to be there. I called to put the order thru by phone but got nothing but 'the best I can give you is $20 off because your code is invalid.'(offshore call center voice optional)

I had to solve it myself. Definitely not even worth $10 for the aggravation of calling for no help.

Aha! I have the same issue... I may actually bother to call tomorrow and see if I can get my extra $5 now that I know why it wasn't working. Thanks!

[I called and got my extra $5 off, thanks for pointing out the problem!]

Just saw this on another forum, Chubby Billfold.

Dell 2005fpw for $334 !!!!

There's a $100 off $500 coupon floating out there for Small Business E&A purchases.

$434.25 (after automatic 25%) - $100 = $334.25

This is the lowest price ever!!! Been waiting on this since last July, where it was around $350 lowest. Prices last couple of months has been around $385-400.

Just ordered one. There's the total:

Sub-total $334.25
Shipping & Handling $11.00
Shipping & Handling Discount -$11.00
Tax $27.57
Total Price $361.82

Anybody think I can call Dell and get them to show me love? I can't believe it! I was waiting, got the coupon $45 off, and I should receive the thing tomorrow. Rats.
