Was going get the n800 from Circuit City but it was sold out the next day (as you've noticed). Buy.com has it for 229 and I found a 10 dollar off coupon (via Google) provided you buy it before the 31st of December. Now I'm waiting for the n800 as my SD cards shipped out but the n800 is still in the warehouse.

The deal from Circuit City was probably a limited time only.

You can usually order items from Circuit City online and have them delivered to your store. Did you try that?

They usually aren't delivered (rather just picked up in-store), but when it was online for $200, it wasn't available for in-store pick up.

well, i would order it to have it delivered, but it's not even on the site anymore, it doesn't say sold out, it doesn't even show up anymore, if you go and search, or just go through the directories of sorts, it's not there. and i have 200 bucks worth of circuit city gift cards that i was going to use to buy it, but now it's not there to buy, online or in store, i think i'm going to go to the store and ask if they have one in by chance, not much chance, but some i suppose. it's as if they don't even carry it anymore whatsoever, i emailed customer service, but they didn't respond. it's gone, like freakin' houdini...

*edit*
here's the link to the item page at circuit city's website.

I found that link around 5 am on the 26th and used it to get the n800 - the link was no longer valid at 11 am same day - tiger direct has it at 219.99 - the n800 arrived the 27th - looks like it's going to be an interesting piece of technology.

yea, isn't it flat out strange that it disappeared as it did?

It happens a lot on Best Buy and Circuit City's website. Sometimes they sell out and become back ordered, other times they just flat-out disappear.

exact same thing happened here. i asked them in store to order & they can't, it doesn't look like they'll be getting it anytime soon (if @ all). I got it from buy.com for a grand total of $219

IN STORE ONLY! J&R MUSIC WORLD IN NYC HAVE THE N800 IN STOCK. OPEN BOX THO. ALSO PRINT THE $15 OFF COUPON ON WWW.JANDR.COM Da'Vi

looks like i'll be buying it from somewhere else, i'm now kicking myself for not buying it when i was going to at first... #*@% for not buying it... *crosses fingers* ps3 price drop, ps3 price drop.
