AIEEEE! It's on the Home Shopping Network!

Oy! Where's Suzanne Sommers when you need her ;)

There are 2 goofs selling the Axim on the Home Shopping Channel or whatever it is here in Canada.

CAD$665.00 - WTF???!??? They've packaged it up with the leather case - HOLY CRAP IS THAT CASE UGLY!

[Tintin]

They have it bundled with a bunch of super-high margin crap!

2 year warranty = $90
Leather case = $50
Screen protector = $12
Extra Stylus = $13
USB cable = $20

So it is a 'good' deal - it is $90 less than the same bundle from Dell, but there was no mention of the $80 rebate.

Ugh. I hate to see people get sucked into buying crap off TV.

To bad Dell decided to sell on the HSC as it lowers their quality image. I have alway equated HSC to 'as seen on tv' class junk. I even programmed the remote to skip that channel as listening to their sales pitch can polute the brain:D

There are people that live on the HSN and will only buy from there, and its giving Dell some more advertising, I think its a smart move IMHO

God help me if I see some blue-haired old lady walking around listening to Bing Crosby on her Axim this Christmas ;)
