OK, this hasn't even made it to dealmac yet
Amazon is running a $899 brand new 12" iBook sale right now, and that is before the $100 mail-in rebate
But wait! There's more! If you purchase the iBook today, you also get a FREE after mail-in rebate Apple Mighty Mouse... yes, I said FREE!! Did ya hear that?? FREE!!!
The mail-in for the MM is worth up to $50, and since the MM is $49, yes, Virginia, that means a free Mighty Mouse.
Also a bunch of other free after mail-in rebates goodies (Kensigton Mouse etc.) if you prefer.
But wait! There's more! If you used the nifty A9 search engine owned by Amazon, you are eligible for another 1.57% discount on your ENTIRE purchase, and since your MM is free and your iBook is actually gonna be $100 less when all is said and done, you are actually making out like a bandit, considering the 1.57% is computed off the original amount (before the mail-in rebates). Of course you had to be preparing for that by using the A9 for a couple of days, so...
But wait! There's more! Select Free Super Shipping and you pay $0 for shipping and handling PLUS, according to Amazon, it'll arrive no later than dec 23 anyway... shhhweeeet!
But wait! There's more! If you are lucky enough to reside in a state where there is no tax on Amazon shipments, you get it all TAX FREE!!!
But wait! Ummm... actually DON'T WAIT! Go ahead and order... why? Cause last time Amazon held such a sale it lasted only for a day, and was gone. I'm not sure there will be another opportunity like this - the $100 mail-in rebate expires dec. 20, so you snooze, you lose! This is the best deal on a new 12" iBook that I've seen anywhere, so if you were thinking of gettin' it, well, here's your chance!
Anyhow, yes, I did buy the 12" iBook, and the Apple Mighty Mouse. Can't wait! My total came to $934.09 after the instant A9 rebate (was about $14.90). Once I mail in the other two rebates (which I'll do as soon as my stuff arrives!), my total will be $785.09 +$0 shipping +$0 taxes!!! I mean, $785.09 for a brand new 12" iBook and Apple Mighty Mouse, that's insane!!!
And no, I do not work for Amazon, own no Amazon or Apple stock and am in no way affiliated with either
Of course, if you prefer to wait for the Mactels, well that's your decision. I'm extremely comfortable with buying the current iBook!
I'm a switcher and looking forward to my new toys, natch!
