    It's been that price for a while. Amazon usually has the best prices on the EVO from my own experience.
    I'm so nerve-wrecked as to whether I should buy it or not because I have a feeling that it's going to be cheaper this summer. Hardware in general -- cheaper this summer.

    Thanks for the offer HT. Already bought a 500G for $300 a month back so don't need one right now. Was more of a "woe is me" comment.
