    Do Cyber Monday deals ever leak?

    That model is notorious for failure. As bad as vizio's rep is, I would never buy one without a rock solid warranty.

    Some models are, if you read the reviews on google some models hold up fairly well. Just depends. But like I said, to me it would be worth it to buy mine at Costco for the 3 year warranty and no-questions-asked return policy. That is worth it's weight in gold for that kind of investment. The Samsung I plan to buy from Target has good ratings though, so I'm not too worried about that.

    Where is the best deal on a netbook currently listed for Black Friday?

    Any chance iPhone's go on sale anywhere Black Friday?

    Try the fat wallet page for netbooks since it categorizes it by product.

    I doubt iPhone will go on sale.. Apple never does put those on sale, and as far as I know, none of the retailers such as Walmart, BB, and Radio Shack do either.

    Best sale you'll ever find on Apple products are retailers gift cards offered with them typically.

    Well, no biggie about the iPhone, I am expecting to drop another $200 for an additional line and new plan.

    It says Toys R Us has a $79 netbook. I haven't seen it in any of the scans. Probably wouldn't help much considering I don't have a TRU in my area anyway. Thanks.

    The Best Buy one for $150. You'll have to go way early though.

    Yeah, it'd be awesome if it were at a place located in my town but alas.

    Do Cyber Monday deals leak at all? Considering just waiting for that and avoiding the in-store craziness. Do Cyber Monday deal typically compare well with Black Friday deals?

    The one in Beaumont will be ridiculous. 1/2 of East Texas will be there. I'd go to the one in Port Arthur instead.

    I think they do, and I like them better. Amazon = no sales tax, free shipping. And no psycho sleep-deprived people.

    Eh, still better than half of Houston.

    There's enough Super Walmarts in the East Texas area to suck a lot of flack away from Target.

    I thought they changed the Costco return policy? Or does that not apply to TVs?

    Is it really? Thats the one I was going to get, especially since it comes with a $40 gift card.

    I just want it as a computer monitor and occassional gaming/netflix screen

    90 day no questions asked return policy + tech support, and a 3 year warranty. Can't beat it.

    What is their rep? I got a 37' 3 years ago and it has been great for the entire time.
