    I could've used this, but no way I'm going to reorder my m1330 with such a long delay! :( :(

    I sent an email to my sales rep asking if there was any way that I could have this coupon applied to my current order since it is still being built and has not shipped yet. Most likely won't be able to without cancelling and reordering so if that's the case I'm not going to worry about the $150 off. I'd rather pay the $150 extra and not wait until 2009 to get my 1520

    Hm...questions questions =)

    1) how exactly do we cancel an order? and will we get charged for it?
    2) are the 300 dollar off coupons still working?
    3) if I open an account now, do you think I could still get the e-mail? >_>

    i still am waiting to find out - has anyone been able to add the coupon to an existing order or must you cancel and then reorder?

    1) for a 1420 is it worth it with the increase in ship time (esd 8/2 currently)
    2) the post above says it will stack on EPP discounts, but will also stack ontop of the 4% off you get when you open the dpa?

    thanks

    Just wondering if anybody out there has a coupon they're not using. I'm ordering my 1720 this week as soon as the coupons are released on Thursday and an extra stackable coupon would be incredible. Thanks in advance!

    I have both the $100 and $150 coupon codes which I won't be using, so the first to pm me gets the $150 and the second pm gets the $100.

    EDIT: Both Codes GONE
