				DR800SG now also available at CAR TOYS
			 
			
			here's a link same price though as at BestBuy *** that's funny/ironic, seems you can pay through amazon.com *** Last edited by pauli; 02-26-2010 at 06:39 PM. |

			Haven't heard of them before.  iRex has said they're only distributing through BestBuy, wonder where this place is getting their DR800SGs from?

			They have quite a few brick and mortar stores in Texas for auto accessories (electronics). Very popular here for auto gadgets.

			Yeah, I noticed that too.  Kind of struck me as a little odd, especially since iRex has so far been saying BestBuy only for now.  I sent iRex a note asking if this was legit.  Maybe when they said more retailers would be added later, they meant this soon. I'll let you know what I hear back from iRex. |

			Unless you live in Washington, Colorado or Texas you should pay no tax.

			Yeah, apparently they carry the Astak in their store. I had no idea... They don't have the iRex in-store, unfortunately. |

			Strange thing is that if I choose "pay with Amazon.com" option I even get $40 promotional discount. Combined with $0 sales tax (I'm in California), that makes me save more than 70 bucks. Interesting..

 With the savings I wouldn't mind so much if it's backordered! Last edited by SCION; 02-26-2010 at 07:11 PM. | |

			Says on the site "in Stock", if this is legit, think I will cancel bb and go with them, I would have to pay tax but still save about 16.00

			The one in BestBuy is premium limited edition as they wrote in their email to me  (IREX-Digital Reader Premium Limited Edition-DR800SG-US-BK-VD) So, may be the one in CAR TOYS is different ( not premium limited ) ?????? |

 A neoprene sleeve and regular plastic stylus is far from premium.   | |
