Future Shop used to sell the Acer Aspire One for $349. That price was advertised on their website last week. Today, I went in the store to buy one and was shocked to find that the cheapest one was $399. When I asked about the website, they said those were the old prices and the new price took effect just today. I checked the website and they are indeed now listed at #399 and up. Why?

So Internet testing for me has to wait :( Hey I went ahead and got one today at the $349 price:

It has just to be a question of time (when, rather than if). Probably depends on the release date of the Dell 910 in the UK. One thing is for sure, though - I shan't be buying one until the UK price drops and the 6 cell battery's included. Thanks. It has just to be a question of time (when, rather than if).

BusinessWire has French and German versions that focus on European press releases and they don't have any Acer stuff at the moment, fwiw.
