Isn't that an insane price? Get it here http://www.googlegear.com.
Has anyone one bought one? What do you think of it?

My bad. Sorry. Pricewatch.com said it was 119 and i checked it out and its really 154. Maybe its a phone order?

I've noticed a lot of those "mistakes" on pricewatch recently. I think a lot of them are just to get people to their sites.

A lot of times Pricewatch has a special arrangement with the reseller, wherein people referred to the reseller from procewatch get a better price than the one listed on the resellers Web page. Pricewatch takes a dim view of resellers who reneg on their discounts. Call them and see which price is right. If they give you a hard time, let Pricewatch know about it.

I agree, Hoot. Let Pricewatch know about these bait and switch routines going on, it's neither ethical, legal or in compliance to Pricewatch's rules.

Alot of times the seller will only give that price if you mention the site (in this case pricewatch) when you order, which forces you to order by phone.

Well, i talked to the site and they said

"If possible, please email us the link that you saw the listing for this
price. We've checked with our purchasing department and our web masters
and they claim that the price is at $154 and there has not been any changes
that dramatic."

second email

"Please be advised that our purchasing department updates pricewatch.com
with the current prices and they do not show a listing of that price. If
there was any confusion, we apologize."
