    Per their facebook page, Microsoft is bringing back the following discounts at the Microsoft store:

    25% off purchases $1,000 or more
    20% off purchases $500 or more
    15% off purchases $100 or more

    These discounts are valid from now through January 2, 2012.

    They have a few Sony models available. They have a Z2 that regularly sells for $3,000. With the 25% discount, you can save $600 (i7, 256GB SSD, 6Gig Ram, HD display, Blu-Ray PMD, and sheet battery).

    And if you're really daring and read this soon enough, you can save an additional $100 and also get a $100 Gift certificate to the Microsoft store if you shop from 12:00 am (midnight) to 6:00 am on black Friday.

    Dang, I'd pull the trigger if I didn't love my Z1 more than the Z2. :p Think they'll do a discount next year too?

    They just had the same promotion a couple of months ago (and it was good for online orders too). So I'm sure they'll bring it back again in the future.
