Check out the thread at http://discussion.visorcentral.com/...?threadid=14600 for more information. If this link doesn't work, it's the HOT topic under the General Chat section.

I have to ask. What was the point of posting a link to another thread on the same site?

To draw more attention to it, maybe?

Because some people don't read all the groups.

Even then the general chat forum gets a lot more traffic than the edge forum. And if someone isn't interested in checking out the general chat forum, what would make them interested by linking from the other forums? No big deal, it just seems rather fatuous.

Again, dick, the post was meant for other people who read only this group and might want a free Edge. Unfortunately, it looks like the offer is no more.

Interesting, since he registered the day before and it was his first and only post.

Ummm, hello? I got in on this PDA Offer and then thought it was a scam, and while checking out VisorCentral.com found this discussion group. I wanted to let people know in THIS thread that there was another thread about the Visor Edge (since this is the visor edge page) and it's been getting a lot of hits. I'm getting my money back (thankfully) for that rip-off. Again, this was only to reference a big discussion at a different thread. I am not in cahoots. I registered yesterday after I ordered and thought I was scammed.

Pissed and waiting,
Derek

Welcome to VisorCentral. I did not see that you had posted in the other thread. (Its gone now too ) Do you have a Visor or were you trying to get one? John

I was trying to get one. The site had a bunch of others worried about the scam, so I jumped on to get info and to keep people informed. I don't have a PDA, and I was looking for a good deal when a guy referred me to that mess!

You got hosed, Derek. Thanks for the heads up to all involved. BTW, VisorCentral is small enough that most people check out most forums pretty regularly.

hey derek-

If you are interested in getting a Palm or Handspring for cheap, you might wait a bit. These companies may have a few rough quarters coming up, and they may have to resort to rebates/discounts as incentive to move inventory.

Here's a link that I put up in the now defunct Free Edge thread, if you're interested:

http://news.cnet.com/news/0-1006-200-5808146.html

While I like my Prism a lot, I don't know that I would have bought it without the CompUSA rebate a few months back. Made it a no brainer for me. Hopefully similar deals are coming? Whatever happens, I don't think we'll be seeing Edges for $20 again any time soon.
