    Is this the beginning of XPS discounts?

    Hopefully this won't make the deal I got on my M90 look bad.

    I think it will coincide with the release of Merom and back to school. Wouldn't surprise me to see a 5-15% cut across the board. But if you need the laptop now and your productivity depends on it, don't wait, get now.

    XPS-usable coupons have been out for a while...maybe not in the US and not very big...but they're out there. In fact, when I ordered my m1210 on June 23rd I found a stackable deal for 10% off on top of some special that they were running. Granted, it still came to 210,000 yen (USD 1,800), but hey...any little bit helps.
