    The salesmen at my local store also tried to convince me to get an SZ instead of a TZ. They said that it would be better for typing, etc... But when I asked them why they were so eager to sell me the SZ, they said that it was because they had a higher profit margin for the SZ (and 0 profit for the TZ - they were selling the TZ at cost-price).

    Dynamism appears to charge a hefty premium (I suppose for what I hear is pretty good customer service). Unless I'm missing something, I priced out similar configurations on Conics vs Dynamism (TZ and G) and found price differences of almost 600 - 800 bucks!

    I was able to get dynamism to price match both conics and pricejapan. I obviously was elated, as I expected at least some margin to account for them being in the US and the warranty they offer to US customers. Give them a call before you make any decisions... it took them 2 days to get back to me with the price match quote. Well worth it though.
