Now if you pre-order the device at $559 or $569 and then they changed it to $649 then yeah that's more of a scam if it's not one of those "prices subject to change".
That's another thing I noticed with Newegg. Even though the price is $559 right now, their policy states that at anytime the price can go up. Which means if you pre-order at $559 you're not guaranteed the price when it ships, so technically you could end up paying $649 even though you pre-ordered it at $559.

I just had Amazon reinstate my N900 order. If you cancel your order but call back or email them before they close that day and ask for a supervisor, they can reinstate your order...I really would like to stick with Newegg, but I want my device like yesterday...
