But I would really need to sell the 300 if I got it, these little gadgets are getting out of hand!
The two different photos' is interesting.... I wonder which one you get? I would assume(!!!) that you get the one on the engadget site/

I think the rule for taxes is if the web store has a brick and mortar store or office in your state you have to pay sales tax. Walgreens is on almost every corner here in north Texas. I think the photo I posted above is probably the 5" model and the other photo is the 7" WinCE model. The latter is supposed to be going on sale too and for appx. $200, but I couldn't find it anywhere. The manual shows the same photo I posted so that is probably what I will get. I actually like the ambidexterous page buttons as I'm a south paw.
Now if it just ships! Sometimes items aren't in stock and don't ship right away, but at least the Walgreens confirmation email stated they would not bill my card until it ships. So if it turns out to be an item that never materializes I will be able to cancel the order.
