You may have heard something about states needing money. It is partly because people who live in the states and take advantage of things the states do, like building roads and schools, aren't very keen on paying for the benefits they get.
Lol man why are you mad? I wasn't complaining.. Just saying that with the tax and all.. The price bumps up to 551 which is like 8 dollars different than Newegg.. Which doesn't give me that WOW factor.. (and I am saying it goes up to 551 because of Michigan taxes).. I don't think that makes a criminal.. does it?

If you have dell credit card you can get %3 off.
First you have to slect credit card as the payment method then the site will offer you %3 off if you use your dell preferred accoount. It comes to $500 after this discount.

I ordered one although I did not make my mind for n900 due to
its lack of support for Java.

Ironically, as soon as I go to the EPP discount, it says the SAME $80 discount is now an EPP discount. Burned.

5% off at Dell.com via Bing.com Rebate Instrucions

Works only for Dell Home only, I think, however, better deal at dell business(http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...0&postcount=22) . Might work with Dell business purchase, but doubtful.

1) Go to Bing.com (microsoft search site)
2) Click on Shopping in the left hand side
3) Type "Dell" into the search box and press enter
4) At the search results, click on the "Dell.com official site" on the right hand side (First screenshot below)
5) Enter in your email at the sign up screen (Will display 5% off message, second screenshot below) for 5% off your purchase at Dell.com
6) Enjoy. (I make no guarantees)

(you have to have cookies turned on, javascript on, and not go to any other site between clicking on dell link and your purchase, takes 60 days to redeem your 5% rebate.)

Here's more info;

Great idea.. I am checking it out right now!

All it does it redirects me to the Dell site.. I don't get a 5% off.. Am I doing something wrong here?

I don't want to place my order then nothing happens.. :/

Look at Uncle Sam talking. Don't blame people of not paying taxes on their online purchases when the retailers don't charge them. There are plenty of states that don't require you to pay tax on your online purchases unless you reside in the state of which the item was purchase. Which is why retailers such as Amazon.com and many others tax buyers in certain states. Dell on the other hand seems to tax you regardless of your location...where does that money go? My state or the sate of Dell.
