Yeah, if we're lucky (and they're cool about honoring the deal), then they're plum out of 500 units, and will let us get 505 units instead.

I tried ordering a 500 yesterday, but the discounted price wouldn't show up in my shopping cart (so I had to buy ~270,000 points to complete the transaction.) I called them and they filed some sort of request to investigate the issue, but it looks like this is going to take a few days to clear up anyway.

I don't think they're going to try to weasel out of the deal, since they do have a perfectly adequate replacement unit to fulfill the deal conditions with. I doubt that there's that many people still waiting to order at the special price, I don't think it would cost them that much money or whatever.
