Possible $20 Rebate

It says "Not valid if rebate amount exceeds retail or e-tail purchase price." Usually the rebates say the check will only be as much as you paid for it at most. This one however says "not valid" so does the whole rebate get rejected since the cost is less than the rebate amount? That would be pretty f'ed up, but thats what it might be with their ambiguous terms

What have you got to lose sending in the rebate anyway. Maybe they will just send the $$$$. This will mean that after the $20.00 rebate, I spent $.79.

HOT HOT HOT!

DaveS, how does your total come out to be $20.79? Isn't shipping $3.00 + $2.50 = $5.50 added to $16.99 would be $22 something plus tax.

Maybe he doesn't pay tax. If you are going to use this tablet as a mouse, or entry level graphic design, its a perfect tablet. If you think this is a substitute for a professional tablet like Wacom, consider this:

Pressure Sensitivity of Jam Studio is 256.
Wacom is 1024.

This just means that when you press your pen against the tablet, the Jam Studio will recognize 256 different levels of pressure. Wacom is 4x that!

But at a 1/4 of the price of a Wacom, its all good!

eToys also has the Disney version of this tablet:

Thanks,
Sun

You're probably right, Sun818. I was factoring in the WishList 10% off and still couldn't arrive at his number. I think they are effectively the same tablet. So pay $3 more in hopes of getting the rebate, or just get the cheaper one? Hmmm...
