Tomorrow is the last day (and with 90% off), but I wandered in today to see what I could find on the cheap. Walked away with an Lynksis N draft wireless laptop card for $29, a Palm Tungsten E2 with 1 GB SD card and leather "Rhino Skin" case for $40, and a charger for the unit at $8. Best of all, I got a nice big Areo Cool 14 CM fan for $6...all in shrink rap, but no refunds. If you have one of those stores near you...go in with some pocket cash. You might find some great deals. I saw a guy with a huge Apple display...I had to walk buy him and tell him "great score."

Right now I am transfering some MP3's from you guys onto the Palm. It has built in Bluetooth, and I needed to by a cheap Bluetooth USB dongle to transfer stuff from my PC to it (as that sync cable is hard to find now), but all in all I am happy.

Best of luck and go early. There may be slim pickings by now, but surely you will find something of value you wanted, but would not buy due to price. Tomorrow 3/2 may be your day. Cheers!

It's a shame they had to close the brick and mortar stores. Sign 'o the times...

Sadly your right Pete. Sign of the times....
I would think it was hard to compete with those online prices like Newegg has.
But when you NEED something right away...who you gonna call? I guess Circuit City now? (best Buy is consistently higher priced and I always use CC and if not, I do the price matching).
