Decided to go for a refurb. $69 isn't to be sneezed at, especially relative to $320.

So I went to Amazon to order one but they weren't there!!!

After F5'ing for pretty much 12 hours, one came up - magic! Stumbled my way through the checkout process thinking that I might miss out taking too long but clicked the ORDER button and within 30 minutes it's updated to "Shipping soon"!

Awesome

Having said this, based on past experience sometimes Amazon can let you order something they don't have enough stock of - does "Shipping soon" mean I have been allocated one or could I still miss out??
