    Tuesday

    I bought it. I bought it for $285 + tax before the $50 rebate, which I think is decent. I ordered it from Dell, which was very decent enough (cynical enough) to list Xbox Elites on the 5th, even though they didn't have any in stock right now so that the buyers could qualify for the rebate. They removed the listing as of 12am on the 6th.

    In the end, I'll be saving $66 on it if everything goes well.


    Yesterday

    Wow. It came already. I didn't expect it to come so early. It's pretty awesome. They sent me a Jasper bundled with two games, LEGO Batman and PURE, which I didn't expect... but since I got them for free, I can't complain. Maybe I'll eBay them before the market's saturated with those. Or I'll play them. We'll see.

    I don't really have a good set up right now since I didn't expect it so soon. I'll probably put it next to my PC or my TV. Get myself a AV-VGA cable and maybe a component cable. No wireless dongle for me. I really don't want to have to get and deal with a wireless router.
