I went to BestBuy yesterday to get my new 6.1 Speakers and I started talking with the guy over the PDAs/Cellphones... He couldn't tell me when exacly it comes out, but said probably 5 or 7 days after the sony release date. But it doesn't matter to me, because I'm all setup with Circuit City to make an upgrade. The NATICK store wouldn't do it, so I called others and found out that at at least 3 stores I can do the exchange paying the extra $200.00 __________________ Erick Hartung

You guys act like I said you can't buy the NZ any where! LOL! I was just sharing with you guys the imformation that I heard. I spoke to a friend I know that works for Sony and it's TRUE! Best Buy doesn't feel that the NZ 90 will sale because of the price. Of course Best Buy sales items that cost more than $800! Duh! But in the PDA department that was a little too expensive. Plus the margin of profit is too slim for them to take a chance on it! My wife will check today with her friend who works for Best Buy's purchasing dept. LITTLESIX, relax you WILL be able to buy a NZ! Thank God Best Buy isn't the only electronic store, I'd be dead right now. __________________ "Snap" one picture. "Snap" two pictures.

jedix Blech at you! Join Date: Sep 2002 Location: New Jersey Posts: 804	I know its kinda silly. That's why I said I'm not angry/upset/whatever. I just thought, for discussion sake, that they would. Just a discussion, not an argument. __________________ I live in my own little world, but it's ok...they know me here.

Great Idea!

The problem lies with those of us who bought devices from BestBuy with an extended warranty. If you want to upgrade (like I was told I could when I purchased the warranty), and the device isn't there, you're stuck. Doesn't matter for me because I'm not upgrading, but I could see people getting upset that want to.

eric2002 NZ90 Join Date: Nov 2002 Location: California Posts: 953	come on, what do you mean they won't carry it... That seems sooooooo ridiculous, they sell $5,000.00 dollar TV's, cameras from $99-$2000, why wouldn't they sell an $800 entertainment device, especially if they sold the NX at $600 and it probably sold very well. I can't believe this is true...

At least the stores that sold tons of NX it will. So maji maybe your in the area that has not sold a lot and that is why they are not carrying in stores Also you said your wife is an hp/compaq rep, maybe Best Buy did not or was anot allow to say to a comptetitor.
