The desktop I wanted for $249.99 is also not being sold online at futureshop.ca. It is on the front page of the flyer though.

It's probably called a doorcrasher because you have to show up at FS' door to pick up the item (at least that's my definition of a doorcrasher).

Those speakers have been there all day the past two days.
I know, cause I keep staring at them, trying to decide if I want to buy them.
The fact they keep getting restocked isn't helping, the matter.

I bought my son the TV tuner card from the A+ affiliate in Scarborough today for $20.99.
They had lots of them.

In case anybody is interested I will give some info on it:
Box has a sticker with brand name of Power View.
Made in China
NTSC, TV tuner without FM
Jacks on the face of the card:
audio in, 75 ohm coax in, video in, s-video, line out, remote input (the IR remote sensor cable plugs in here)
Tuner based on this Philips LSI chip:

recall, stop, full screen buttons)
dual end 3/8 plug stereo cable to go to line in on sound card

not the greatest deal ever, but I did buy a hauppage pvr-150 for 99.99 at london drugs the other day. I've seen it on sale for that price before, so it wasn't a boxing day super deal or anything, but as cheap as I've seen them go onsale around here.

[rfdlink=/forums/autolink/redirectpage.php?linkid=28]NCIX[/rfdlink] has the MCE version of the Hauppauge PVR150 with MCE remote for $105. You're not gonna beat that deal if you plan on using this thing with MCE. I picked one up.
