Smells ripe to me... 90 days? I've never heard of Dell offering that.... Dell only offers 1 year on their Axims AFAIK by default. When I got our order of 20 they all had 1 year...

Warranties are transferable.. unless they are stolen??

Lots of reasons you would want a warranty. What if...WHEN... your Dpad stops working?

90 day warranty is a Dell refurbished unit. Dell does not offer warranty on it. The warranty is strictly fromthe reseller. Same as you would get from ComputerGeeks for $199 (advanced).

its wierd because he tells me it has the c1 processor, which would prolly only be in new units..but rad man are u saying i should wait out cuz of the 90 day warranty indefinetly? thx, also can u purchase warranties?

huh? I didnt understand your question. I'm saying that if its a new unit, you can transfer the warranty. So they should be able to put it in your name.

Who knows, but it would seem that isn't not a new unit, but a referb.... For that price you can do better on the classifieds here. I'm thinking that if you buy the Axim from him you won't get a Dell warranty.

BTW:
For $260+... wait for a deal from Rad-Man and get the full year warranty with an OUTSTANDING warranty from DELL. Maybe pay only another $20 or so with some of the deals that have been offered with free shipping! What is VoltDepot's shipping costs?

Seriously, 90-day warranty is not new, maybe new in stock. Ask them if they will supply an invoice number from Dell so you can check the 'ownership transfer' availability.

;)

the original question was about whether or not this deal was real, because the store is offering a brand new axim advanced with a 90 day warranty, other people said that new units only have 1 year warranties, so i was wondering what the deal might be with this warranty, sorry for the confusion, thnx

There is no way this is a new unit with a 90 day warranty.
