Have i just been blind these years and not noticed that apple has a price matching program with apple certified resellers?

It states that they will match the price of hardware and software up to 10% off the apple store price.

is this (http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/72304/wo/957E9IJNBLIW3Mtev9UILCpso1p/0.0.13.1.0.6.63.0.1.0.0.0.0.3.1.1.0?99,56) new

PS: I do not know how long that URL will last since it is in the apple store and i believe the URls change constantly, at least they do on some of the hardware to my knowledge.

Yeah, I don't think I've ever seen any Apple certified reseller with a price that was different from Apple's own price. So big freakin' whoop that they offer price matching. A cheap marketing ploy with no teeth (much like Windows XP -- and this from a Windows 2000 user).

hmmmm CompUSA was selling the USB/Firewire iPod connector for $19.99 the last time i was there (yes i got one) which usually sell for 29.99..... i wonder if Apple would have price matched that?

I believe it's only up to 10%
