Wal-Mart Stores Inc. have sold out of Acer Inc.’s popular Aspire One netbook on strong demand from online customers.
The Aspire One held a sold out status on Tues. at Walmart.com.
The product includes a 8.9-inch screen, 1.6 Ghz Atom CPU, 1GB RAM, 160GB hard drive, 6-cell battery and Windows XP for $399.99.
The Aspire One has also held strong demand at Amazon.com where several models have ranked in the top five sales in the Electronics division.
They just want the *batteries!*
When, God, when will the 6-cell batteries become orderable??!
Huh? I check walmart.com daily, and I’ve never seen the 160gb, 6-cell version ever listed on walmart.com. I have seen the 120gb, 3-cell version on walmart.com – but that sold out about 10 days ago. And walmart never adjusted the price of that model to reflect Acer’s price cuts. Walmart continued to sell it at the old price ($399.00) right through Sept. 6th. And they still managed to sell out – because no major vendors had stock of even that model at the time.
Rachel,
The 6-cell version is available through NCIX.com. They ship to both Canada and the US, but the keyboard is bilingual (English/French). It is now available in Saphire Blue and Onyx Black.
