Sure, you can look back in retrospect and know that if you waited a few extra months you could have saved a little money, but surely you're a bit more at fault for deciding it was worth $700 when you bought it than Sony is for allowing retailers to sell it cheaper.

If it's worth the price you bought it for, that's about all you can be happy with. Maybe 20 years from now the value will increase. __________________ -Cameron

The reason being that you always feel like you should have waited (I know, I bought an Xbox for $299 and now they're $179, and I won't tell you what I paid for the 17 inch Powerbook that now comes with a faster processor and larger hard drive for the same price). Like someone said, if it was worth what you paid to buy it when you did, then be happy. Otherwise you'll just have to start buying your tech items 2 and 3 generations behind.

My Hyundai Tiburon rocks! And I own a UX50. It rocks too. Buyer's remorse? Not for me. I got a great value from both investments.

A few teething problems as they try new technology that costs money to do, but they will continue to knock away at the big boys (palm?) :-) __________________ Quickly create templates of ToDo and Appointment items to use over and over - you will never miss a step at work or at play.
