I just bought an N800 at my local CompUSA, and they gave me 40% off because it was in their cellular inventory. That would more closely match the numbers you quoted.

Compusa is discounting all their gear because they are closing down all their retail stores.
So are these discounts "in-store only" or is the price in the store the same price I would find on their website?
Because (granted this is a "competitor" and not the N810) if the price online is the same price in the store that is discounted - They have officially gone nutty
Especially when shops like JandR sell that item (link) for ~$350.

:-)
and amazon has the n800 for less w/free shipping!

TD bought all of CompUSA's web assets.
So the stores and the web site are now different businesses

I stumbled on one at my local CompUSA in Nashville. Picked it up before I had even been here to these forums to find out what an internet tablet can truely do. I am definately hooked. I hope more of you can find one at your local CompUSA. It was in with the phones at the store I went to. Got it for 40% off. At a second store on the other side of town they had the tablets in with the PDAs.
