Seems the sudden urge in Pocket Edge sales might be forcing the price back up. A couple of days ago I was checking out a website (www.nextdaypc.com) and they listed 96 PEs in stock at $229. Today when I checked the price is $246.16. Still, this is more good information for people like myself who "purchased" one of the $199 units from the Amazon Marketplace. I know we all got the automated UPS shipping info but maybe Worldwide Distributors may have sufficient quantities to meet all sales.
