And I wouldn't advise against such a Woot! deal.

But at ~$140 plus shipping from Japan for something that's likely been sitting in a box with its lithium ion battery deteriorating for 2 years, no. Just no.

EDIT: There's an eBay seller selling a white one for $129 plus $21 shipping. I'd still pay the extra $10 on Amazon for the waterproofing, presumably being less old, and not having to order from Japan.
