Dell Axim for $149?
http://forums.anandtech.com/messageview.cfm?catid=40&threadid=918268
It would seem so. According to a thead at AnandTech.com, if you buy a Dell Axim at a kiosk, you get the normal $50 rebate plus an instant $50 off! So the $249 and $349 Axims become $149 and $249. If you have a Dell kiosk near you it may be worth checking out before placing an online order.
Update: I just got a message from Michael Gordon, one of the other Microsoft MVPs that supports the Pocket PC. He confirmed this deal exists. Home users may also be able to get a 10% discount as well. I have seen other posts where the Dell people at the kiosk don't know anything about this extra $50. So, print this post out and take it with you as proof! :wink: "Look Dell Dude, Ed and Michael said it was a valid deal, now, gimme the X5." :lol:

Beat that palm!! Hell, I am going to buy one just as a backup! (oh wait, I am not in the US... I would if I where there)
{edited link out - don't post links that can cause an irreversable loop. I had to kill iexplore.exe in Task manager, which killed another window. Not funny at all. -Ed}
Hope we never see that on a pocketpc!!

I clicked it before you edited it out and I didn't get stuck in a loop.

I stopped by the Dell kiosk at the Galleria mall in Dallas last night and the lead rep told me the $50 off coupon rules had changed on 11/26. The $50 off coupon is now only good for purchases over $500.

The rules changed on 11/26?!? Let's all beat the snot outta the Dell Dude!
(Not because of the rule change. Just 'cause he deserves it. )

Is there anywhere on the Dell website that lists kiosk locations? I've been looking around and can't find anything. :?
