Thats a whole lotta rebate, but it seems legit and seems like a steal for an ultra portable on this level. It's not some leftover piece of crap either its x4500 graphics and all the goods.

anyone willing to take the rebate risk could easily make $1000 on the fleabay with this... and even if the rebate doesn't go through, it's still $500 profit... plus with live cashback... you may be able to charge more than that!

Where do you see any that have sold that indicates how much they are going for on eBay?

wow this looks like an awesome deal except I really don't want to deal with 500 MIR... not bad cpu speed + 6 Cell battery +everything included + 2.8lb(wow). I guess it is samsung's version of macbook air but cheaper. I would jump on this if it 100MIR.. not 500MIR. I never owned this particular unit but looks sexier then macbook air

i saw 2 listed on ebay
i didn't see where any had been sold
i wouldn't buy it if i didn't plan to keep it

Quote from slyestdog : Where do you see any that have sold that indicates how much they are going for on eBay?

Look how much they are going for from other vendors, mid $2,000

Selling laptops on Ebay is risky.. Recent Consumerist Article [consumerist.com]

I'm really trying to find a reason (other than my wife) to NOT buy this right now....

Even if you didn't get the rebate it's still a killer price as far as I can tell. Only thing I don't like about it is the brushed aluminum with the purplish anodizing or whatever it is on the lid. If I hadn't gone for the Gateway 7805u when they had 1920x1200 screens I'd be seriously thinking about this.
