    Ordered -- very cool. Also went to Amazon to order the rapid charger and a Blurex Slim Leather Portfolio Case.

    That has to be below cost.

    I bought my 64GB @ $550 roughly five months ago.

    Cost on it is about.. $600?
    When I got mine on discount (5% over cost) I got it for about $625.

    Anyone try to do local pick up? Just asking not available for any local pickup and i know they have them in stock.

    Still a great deal if you don't mind waiting.

    Hope the pricing isn't a mistake as the CB Blog suggests!

    If it is a mistake then do you think we'll have 32GB PlayBooks shipped instead?

    I am thinking of ordering one.
    Can I bridge with BB Bold 9700?
    I saw a few posts saying it doesn't work with 9700

    Don't they have to honor it if it says 64gb?? It doesn't seem like a mistake either especially after the whole 199 deal in Texas, maybe Best Buy wanted to outshine staples? But anyways I'm so excited thanks OP!

    no they don't. they usually send out a bulk email saying this was a pricing mistake and, please, see our T&C > link >.

    however, it is quite possible that they have tons of unsold 64gbs. you'll find out pretty soon.

    don't count chickens before they hatch . let's see if best buy usa actually fulfills the orders. at this point their prices are fictional.

    well, i checked their site for all the playbooks and they have the 16g at 200 and the 32g at 300...i'm going to play it safe and call tomorrow before i order...i was planning to buy the 16g at staples on fri but with this deal i think i'll wait...i wonder why bestbuy didn't announce it as a blackfriday deal....i also checked all my nearby stores for pick up and they all say unavailable...i'll be calling those stores directly tomorrow.

    Yes the sales are great - only problem is nobody will have any in stock at the stores....

    I was wondering though, how do you back order something that supposedly is discontinued and no longer being made ? hmmm
    I'm buying one, because according to the prophets of doom in here this will be one HOT collectors item!!

    I'm gonna look at this positively even if it comes out as 32gb cause it's still cheaper than staples and now I've secured one while the black friday shoppers have advance knowledge of the staples deal.

    besides, you didn't have to stand in the line. that's also positive unless you like camping in the wilderness of a shopping area

    What's funny about this offer is the $200 two year protection plan - for that price the best protection plan is to buy a spare!

    What's the best price going on a 16g by the way? Haven't even used up my 16 yet...
