    Not exactly what I'd call an amazing deal, but ok.

    Ouch... really, is it really a discount, or are they just saying it? I, apple can say a nano costs 600$, but wait, you save 400$ instant!

    Dell has instant rebates all the time. One time it was around $715. But the base configuration was so expensive anyways it cancelled out. Don't go on savings numbers alone.

    That price reflected against the build looks on par.
    Even an additional coupon on top wouldn't make for a block buster.
