Hector just informed me via e-mail that Buy.com has a slew of Samsung Q1U deals, many of which have a $150 mail-in-rebate. You’ll need to pull the trigger quickly however, as the rebate offer only applies to UMPCs purchased by the end of this month… just three short days away!The model he pointed out to me is the one with a 60 GB hard drive, 1024×600 native screen, split QWERTY thumb-board, Intel A110 800 MHz CPU and 1 GB of memory. Not a bad deal at all for $699 after rebate. Oh and it runs Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium… doable on this model, but I highly recommend you take some of that rebate money and invest it into a 2 GB memory module for your UMPC. Now if these devices originally hit the shelves at these prices, I think they would have sold like hotcakes. Thanks Hector!
