The Best Buy employees seem to know nothing of this
That's not exactly news. In my experience Best Buy employees often know nothing about product that's directly in front of them. One that I spoke with when initially researching PDA's showed me a fancy $300 leather PDA case and claimed it was the one that came with the Visor Deluxe.
As far as stuff going away, I have two Wal-Marts within reasonable distance to me. One has a sparkling selection of Visor stuff, and no other PDA's. The other doesn't have anything PDA related -- not even stylii -- and would probably run screaming into the night if faced with any.
The one Target has a couple Visors and Palms tucked away in the electronics section, next to a couple of protable DVD players, and the Staples I go to (there are two in my area; the one I don't go to, which is actually closer, is the absolute worst retail establishment I have ever entered in my entire existance and which I could rant about for hours upon end until I expired from the venom) has a wide selection of several models, as well as boxed software, cases, attachments, etc. They like PDA's so much I wouldn't be surprised if they started giving them away if you spent a certain amout of money, just so they could have more in the store.
Best Buy, Circuit City, CompUSA, three additional Wal-Marts, two Staples, the only Office Depot I know of and another Target are all outside my current ability (time, distance, reason to go) to visit, so can't comment on those.
