$89. Alright, comparable. But there ain't no Amazon store ten minutes from my house.

Walmart has been working hard lately to pricematch amazon with a lot of new dvd/bd.

Should be interesting to watch how Walmart and Amazon's potential price war affects Best Buy.

Was in BB the other day... I think they are price matching BDs, also. At least to within a dollar or two.

But then the PS3s are up to $350.... they are gouging the last minute shoppers. Bought mine for $300.

Doesn't the $350 version have a 250GB hard drive and the $199 has a 120GB.

$299 for the 120gigger.

It tells you right in the manual how to upgrade the HD... but I don't think I ever will because I am streaming everything.

Ya, I'm saying that the more expensive one you saw has a bigger hard drive. So, it's not just gouging.
