Linksys wireless router & 4-port switch - $99 at local Wal-mart

Bloomington IN store is still 199

Went to 4 WalMarts around here (S.FL) and the first 3 didn't even carry the wireless access point. They did have the regular linksys 5port switch kits on sale/markdown for like 78 or so. The super walmart had some CDRW's by HP marked down to $75 from 99, I think it was either 12x or 10x speed. Not sure if that's any good, didn't need it myself.

[EDIT] A few of the walmarts had the Intel AnyPoint 1.6Mbps PCMCIA / PCCARDS in stock for $29/ea (regular 68.88 or something to that effect). Just the PCCards, not USB or PCINics, etc. They intel anypoint stuff is not compatible w/ 802.11b IIRC, but, not a bad price if you have a use for them. [/EDIT]

WalMart #4 (a standard walmart not "super") had one Wireless kit marked the 'ol regular price @ $199. I asked the man with the key to the case to take it out and scan it and it rang up $199. Maybe they'll reduce it later, but, I'll have to wait and see.

Its another elusive Walmart DVD-RW deal. Checked 4 walmarts in S. FL also. None carried the wireless. $97 for the wired.

Its usually only in certain stores. Wally World deals require lots of luck. I bought some stuff CDRs 30 for $3 a while back that most people couldnt get.
Anyhow this is worth the trips to my local W M so i'm gonna check it out

I returned it back to the store. Not even close to Orinoco by signal, distance range and got interference from my 2.4Ghz phone.

Same here, four different Walmarts and none had it at that price.

Someone got lucky

I dont think this deal was for the Wireless router with 4 port switch... I beliee that it is for the Wireless "READY" router with 4 port switch.

I saw this in a local Fry's ad going for $89.. and my first thought was holy $hit!.. PM with staples and coupon, wow...

But, after careful researching... I looked up on Linksys' site, and I noticed they had a new router that was "Wireless" ready.. meaning, you would have to buy a PCMCIA wireless card, and stick it in the back of the router.

So, I think that clarifies this so called hot-deal.

I don't have access to scanner at this moment, I bought two @112 each at local wal-mart along with viewsonic E70f @100 last week.
I AM USING IT NOW AND IT IS A 4 PORT WAP+ROUTER.

On the receipt it says
Etherfast------074588354994-------- 112.00

I just picked up the last one at the Vista, CA (So Cal) Walmart for $100 plus $7.75 tax. The model number is BEFW11S4 (not the second edition). I called 3 other Wal-Marts and Vista was the only one that had any.

Forgot: There is a red clearance tag on the box that says: was 199.88, so I guess some are clearancing, I am sure other stores will follow.

I picked up 1 in vancouver wa. $199.88. I am hoping the price will drop here too. If not they said I have 90 days to return it for a refund. I wont open the box for $199.88 but $99 ...... Yeah baby, yeah

When some Tivos went on sale for 50 to 100 at some Walmarts I started checking my local Walmart. They never dropped the price in 6 months. What a waste of time.
