    I am looking for a CF-29 to use in automotive diagnostics. I am looking for at least a 1.3ghz version with internal wifi and touch screen and a cd drive. I do want all the covers there and working but the rest of it doesent need to be extremely pretty. I am not looking for a completely rebuild spotless machine. I just need one that will do its job as its suposed to do and be protected from the elements.

    Thanks
    Ian

    Then I think you should wait until you have the money in hand. We can shop for you but most bargains disappear in minutes and don't hang around for days. That's why we did away with the "Deal of the Day" thread on ebay. If you didn't catch the listing in the first few minutes... It was already sold!

    In case anyone was interested that city of mesa seller posted more of those 29s for $400 on ebay, too high for my tastes but a good retail price for people
