That's probably the jist of things. This store is in Greenfield, WI. The previous day we were hit by that awful blizzard, so maybe the employees were bored from lack of business and in a generous mood. I was at the customer service desk explaining an option might be to discount the 950. Coincidentally, the general manager happened to walk by at this exact moment. The cs rep asked him about this--she actually stated $40, I said no, it's actually $50--and the guy just keeps walking by nodding his head saying yea yea no problem. So I guess mostly I was just lucky.

I knew about the skins made by DecalGirl before I bought the 950. Thanks for the suggestion, though. And after using it for awhile, I'm actually growing quite fond the silver color, but not so much the chrome parts.

I just looked at Best Buy's weekly ad and they're still giving a free cover with an ereader.
