So, Acquire got more stock?

Was there a newsletter or something sent out or was it just "those who where in the know" managed to grab the last?

Probably friends of the staff or something :(

Just bought a 32GB one off EBay for $253USD which compares well with the Mobi City price.

I really wish i'd bought a 32gb one now, I got a 16gb one from eBay for $210USD, a little extra and i'd have double the capacity, didn't really think about it at the time.

Are you having it shipped directly to you or via a US address?

ahmad: Next time there is a fire sale I suggest that waiting for an answer from your wife isn't the smartest buying strategy.

Spoken like someone who doesn't have a "she who must be obeyed"
