It was the same display model I had been keeping watch on for months, and their last unit, so they marked it down from the $87 clearance price to $40, and I got the Sony book-cover type case for another $10.
I didn't have that much luck here in Canada finding any "T1 Blowout Deals"...
I had made up my mind to go with the T1 after all, and thought it would be easy to pick up some "leftovers" for a good price, but after checking EVERY CHAIN in Montreal that used to have them (and having them check every location for stock) I came up empty-handed. There doesn't seem to be a single new T1 left in the whole city. A lot of stores already had the T2, but apart from some (abused) shop models there was nothing left.
I was able to order one online from Best Buy finally (for CAD119), but that was really my only option.

So... anybody else hoping for good clearance deal—don't get your hopes up too much. Mileage may vary in the U.S., but it looks like Canada pretty much used up their inventory already.
