Try Newegg.com or Newegg.ca, they are usually less than mostAnybody find any good deals on a new 540s on the net? I've seen so many sites I can't keep track. Thanks.
If you look closely - heck, forget closely! - the compusa.com site is actually a very slightly modified version of tigerdirect.com who took over the compusa.com online presence when compusa went belly up. Once you get off the main page, you'll find the content and pricing is identical.I even found a web site for "The New COMP USA". I thought they were history! Their actually web only.
You should have seen it early on after the "merger". The ONLY difference was the name/logo - the pages were all identical apart from that - even the home page! One of these days I need to study who it was that picked up the name and is opening the brick and mortar stores again and if they've got any relationship at all to TigerDirect. Just a point of curiosity.Thanks for the feedback Canderson. You're right. I had been to both sites and didn't pick up on that.
Nice deal with the "points". Can't beat $70. $110 worth of points sure did bring down your cost.Well, I have ordered my new 540s and it should be here by Wednesday, 3/31. I had some unused AMEX reward points in my account and used them to offset the cost at Crutchfield who partners with AMEX on certain items. Just so happens the 540s was one of them. Cost $70 w/ points. I'm sure I'll be back for help on Wednesday or Thursday, depending on time. As I stated in an earlier post, I'm not what you would call an early adopter when it comes to technology. This will be my first GPS. I hope I got the right one. I'm excited to begin my journey. Have a blessed day and thanks again to everyone.
What the heck .. I'm a sucker for a cute dog avatarHonestly, your initial encouragement and willingness to offer help in earlier posts is what moved me to make the purchase. Left on my own, I'm not sure I would have bought one at all.
I'm having trouble getting their site to cooperate at the moment. I'll get back to you on the specifics.Canderson,
The mall thing is a must. How do I download it?
You bet. Any time you make a major change (new firmware or new map), it's super important to do it. Be sure you don't overwrite your previous backup. Try to keep two of them ... the current one and the one just before. I also tend to make a backup every few months just to capture other things I've changed myself.Also, now that I have a completely updated unit, should I make another back-up copy to replace the one I made when I first got the unit? If so do I keep both or just the new one?
