    Was looking at bestbuys website and it says the 16 and 32 are on back order but the prices are the original prices.

    Has the price gone back up now? This is from this morning.

    Staples and Office Depot still have them on sale, with Office Depot stating that the discount is effective through "10/15/2011".

    This was a situation limited to stock on hand, at least according to the fine print I read at different stores. So if Best Buy has raised the price, then perhaps they have already run out of stock.

    The 16 and 32 says back ordered but not the 64.

    It's highly doubtful the price is going up. Still $299 in today's staples Sunday ad.

    Let's be real. It's not going to be a sale much longer. $299/16gb will be the MSRP price. HTC reduced their 7 inch flyer to $299 permanently after the Kindle announcement.

    The Kindle at $199 will force all 7 inch Tablet manufactures to lower their prices down quickly aspt least to $299 because they have more "features" but not $100 more worth of features than the kindle fire.

    I agree. Pricing is a competitive thing - and not just with the Fire. You may see temp changes like this Best Buy, but the eventual trend is to drop down a level.

    Futureshop keeps on extending the sale, first it was 6th, now it's the 13th.
