Did the same thing -- I was messing around on Dell's site and was adding items to my cart to check on current projected ship dates (very anxious) and I came across the $40 discount. Since I placed my original order for a 300 with no access. on 12/31 and continuously see the order delayed -now scheduled to ship in Feb - I went through and ordered the 400 with the $90 discount (including mailin -- would have been greater but I've opted for the air instead of ground shipping, which would have been free). I've taken your advice and did a number of screen shots, in case they try to claim the $40 discount does not apply. It doesn't say anything about that. If things go the way I suspect, I probably get the order on or before the date the 300 would have arrived. Oh yeah, I canceled that one.

<_< I'll post what happens.... I ordered a D-Link 660W cf card and 256 SD mem - I have the mailin $40 bestbuy rebate in the mail for the D-Link and as soon as the scandisk secure digital card comes in, I'll ship that $30 rebate off as well. I just hope I receive the Axim before the rebates - or that would be ground breaking - one company is sending me money back before the other one takes it. The one good thing about all these back-ordered shipping woes, is I've been able to find some great deals. so far, being a little patient will save me $160.
