Ah...well, that's valid.

If you want to keep it, keep it. But, seriously...don't sell it to a regular on here at a mark-up if you are going to part with it.



But, then again...that's just me.

If I had 20 of them, sure. But for the one, its a tough call.

So apparently some are getting emails from datavis to upgrade to 32GB for $40 and next day shipping. If I get it, I'll take that offer.

I tried getting one from Best Buy, all they could tell us is they might get them in on their shipment (arriving that day) but they didn't know what time. I couldn't sit around Best Buy all day so I said F it.

If they do, they probably have wings and a super absorbent lining.

No promises...but, yeah...let's see if they have more incoming. They will know later this week.

And no, I won't mark up anything. Just pay for the shipping and tax.




...and also, make a vow to never insult robots/Blackhawks/Bulls/Bears/White Sox/Cubs/Pagani/Aston Martin/Sony/Batman evar again.

I will not make fun of them but I can talk about other teams, just like you and your deep love for Apple, and the Packers.

Did you guys install them yourselves? Reason I ask is I bought one for my Ipad, installed it myself and it looked and felt like shit... Bought another one and had geeksquad install it for 10 bucks and it looks and feels flawless.

Are you looking for them as well...? If you really want either...I think I can still score some.

(Better odds than a TouchPad.)

DONE!



But, seriously...no promises if I can get any. Now, keep in mind if I do...who to send it to is going to be interesting as well.

Hold a caged fight to the death...?

Jesus. I've never seen a thread on AZ for a single product get so much hype before so quickly.

I probably want one.... but then again I'm the type of person that wouldn't know what to do with it. I still want it though, because it's shiny and new.
