    Our phone lines just opened up. We are Central Standard Time. The Sager NP8660 is not shipping until late July or Early August.

    hey justin,
    i was just told my justin w. when i ordered through the phone with u guys(xoticpc) that these gas cards are given out with random so i might not even get one, nor does he know where the gas card will be good for.
    i thought it was first come first serve...not random lottery.
    so who's right..
    he also mentioned that i can't have the full cash discount along with the student discount. since im applying both, i only can get a fraction of both discounts....
    i also thought that student discount is 50% off shipping. when i asked what is your student discount to double check..justin w. didnt mention anything about 50% off anything. but rather said something about like 2% off..
    im confused... is this how this works?

    (not to bash or anything honest, but i might add he didn't sound too confident in being a sales rep. i was hoping to order through you justin nolte, but he informed me that he(justin w.) is the main man to go to for sales and that you were out of the office and does work mostly on notebookreview and doesn't really work in sales.
    i also had to tell him my password for my account through the phone to him.. which seemed kinda strange. is that a normal process for phone orders?
    i would have double checked stuff but i was too excited in placing the order and pressed on time due to work so i just played along i guess. hopefully, im just being paranoid. i just want to know my order is well placed with the fairest price with all the discounts and all =)

    ^ I recommend you email in or call us tomorrow. A public forum is not appropriate for order details & discussion.

    As the promo listed and stated by Sager, they have a limited # of Gas Cards to give out.

    All TouchPads have buttons, it is just that recently they have been making them so that they blend in cosmetically.
