Yeah, I'm holding you responsible for this too Rob. You reported it. :)

Now to sell the 4150.

[stayputnik]

Yeah, but look at it this way, Jason, look at all the money you would have spent, had you know. ;)

Wow... Anyone has a picture of it beside a 4150?

It's a bit taller and larger than the 4150.

[DaleReeck]

$400 Canadian? Holy cow, that's like, $3 US! :D :D :D

Thanks for the link!!! I hate this... Should I upgrade, yes, no... grrrr...

[Paragon]

If I missed this in Jason's review my apologies. Will the x50v charge in the cradle without the charger, just USB?

Hehehe... I heard about the Dell 10 days of deals from someone else, and I hold him responsible for my monitor purchase :devilboy:

If you go to Dell.ca, you can see some of the other deals. RedFlagDeals (http://www.redflagdeals.com) has an archive of the deals in their forums I think.

[Rob Borek]

$400 Canadian? Holy cow, that's like, $3 US! :D :D :D

It's actually just over US$330 - the US dollar has tanked against most of the other currencies, making it cheaper for us Canadians to buy certain goods... like electronics :mrgreen:

[Rob Borek]

If I missed this in Jason's review my apologies. Will the x50v charge in the cradle without the charger, just USB?

It'll charge from USB (in the cradle).

I just got my American Express bill. I think I'm done buying electronics for a while :D

Is that the right url?

Nothing shows up right now.....of course later it will and everyone will think I am a fool.....

[JPD6825]

Save me the trouble of looking at the site... what's the bottom line with Taxes &amp; Shipping?? I thought I did great with the X50V I just got on Wednesday - $349 at Dell Outlet (before T&amp;S) --- knowing that within 60 days they would even be down to $325 or less... --- But not within 5 days!!

458.00 CDN --->381.00 USD all taxes and shipping included

[ZaphodB]

What a deal! As luck would have it, my birthday's coming up in a couple of weeks, so I forwarded this along, and my shiny new X50v should be arriving two weeks from tomorrow. I can finally put my long-suffering Toshiba e740 out to pasture.

Thanks, whoever posted this!

8O :mecry: :mecry: You mean, I missed this deal by less than 1 day! :mecry: That's what I've been saving my pennies for. :(

[Darius Wey]

and with free shipping!

Okay, I'm guessing they won't ship out to the other side of the world, will they? Dang! :P

Yep... sorry... would have passed that tidbit along had this place been named "DellThoughts.com" ;)

I'm weak.

[prismejon]

Damn it! Now I want one too...

Were did you find it for $349? I only found it for $369 (w/$50 off the outlet price).

Noooo... Jeff, what happened to our "we will only ever upgrade every second cycle" pact? :mrgreen:

They have been appearing repeatedly all week -- without the game CD they are $349... be patient and check back frequently. Or if you want to spend $20 on the game CD... pay $369. Oh, and I see my invoice was only about $8 higher in total v. Dell Canada - and I already have mine - :D
Need to update my signature now...

[ricksfiona]

I didn't know the deals were THAT good with Dell on ALL of their products. They have a 24" Widescreen LCD for $1000 8O

Ooooh, if I didn't need a new car first :(

What's the deal with the outlet PPCs by the way? Are they refurbished or return items maybe?

[alcdroid]

nooooo!!!! the only day I did not check in to PDA sites. :frusty:

On the other hand, my finance will probably be glad that i did not splurge that much money on an impulse buy....but still....dang it!!!

Hehe honestly my slow brain had initially read that as "RedNeckDeals" and thought it was a coupon site for Americans (and by that I mean the US) :mrgreen:

[Jason Dunn]

Damn. Today's deal was an 80 GB Iomega hard drive for only $75 CND! But they're already sold out. Grr. Gotta' check it earlier tomorrow. :evil:

[Altaman]

Yes those drives sold out quick...but I was able to pickup the wife the X50v! She has an old Sony Clie and she has been eyeing my E800/830 for some time (dropped the E800, so had to replace it with the E830).

She will now be happy for a while :wink:

They are refurbished -- will have that on a sticker inside the battery compartment I think. Whatever trouble they had - it has been remedied / repaired and tested and they come with a full warranty just like one fresh off the production line. In my experience - it is very unlikely you could detect any difference between these units and the fresh unit. Except you'll have some $$ left to be software - or that PPCT Write Shield.

Crap ! I bought mine Jan 06 2005 for $600 Cdn (with no game either :( )
