Great post. I ordered around noon, and now have a status of:
"Order has printed in the warehouse and is being packed"
I talked to my rep, and he said they were due in any day. Out of the 500, 350+ had been sold when I called, so I'm sure this is dead by now.
Too bad they have to ship it. I'm just down the street.
--EDIT--
Good news for everyone that placed an order successfully. The two I ordered at noonish shipped already. It said none were available, but I placed my order online anyway. Plus my rep bumped 'em down to $17 each.
FYI, it sounds like Compaq discontinued them, so this is probably a one time deal on these.
