Cool, good find! Crutchfield has pretty good customer service too.

I got our second Reader using a "personal shopping day" from Borders Rewards. I think you have to spend $50 one month and then the next month you get 10% for a day of your choosing. Saved us about $37. So even though the Borders coupons now exclude it, the shopping days don't!

Also, for most of us, no sales tax

Technically you are responsible to pay the sales tax directly to your local state government.

Now that there are enough online sales the states are starting to go after the records of some of the larger internet retailers whom haven't already been collecting state sales taxes. Note, they're going after back records, not just recent sales... and some states tack on an extra 15% to 30% "penalty" for not handing over the tax money "on time".

Some states have a line on their state income tax to report/pay these online sales taxes so you can come clean once a year.

How did you get the @20 off? When I put it in the cart, it shows the retail price.

Both NY and CT have two options: provide receipts for everything that you bought on-line during the year and pay tax on them (annoying, tricky proposition), or, if you bought no individual item over $1000, just look up your tax owing on a table on the assumption that everyone is going to do a certain amount of internet purchasing. I think it was about $15 in my income bracket...
