    Can someone show me a place to buy thats cheap and doesn't say that no refund will be given, and shipping has to be paid by me if item is DOA. All the ebay sellers say the same thing which makes me iffy.

    Thanks.

    Wait so Rob when we were talking before... you said you had an 9100... do you have the X9100 or the Q9100?

    Becuase I am finding the X9100 for 300 buy now... and then I'm finding ALOT of Q9100's for 200 buy now... I can't possibly trust that can I?

    That's because on 90% of aps, an X9100 will blow away a Q9100.
