UPDATE: D-Link DI-624 AirPlus Xtreme G Wireless 802.11g Broadband Router
I don't mean to be lazy, but i'm too tired to do the math. Can someone help me PM this...
Staples $119.95:
http://www.staples.ca/ENG/Catalog/ca...affixedcode=WW
Office Depot $79.99
http://www.officedepot.com/ddSKU.do?level=SK&id=361396
PM = $60.01 - $30 mail-in rebate - $5 Online Coupon = $25.01
Is this right?
This is an invalid PM as I accidently was looking at the US Office Depot Web site, but in my case staples didn't notice.

that would be an excellent PM, except you're looking at the american office depot site.
office depot in canada sells them for $109.99
http://www.officedepot.ca/ddSKU.do?l...7839_SK_361396
it is on sale at FS for $99, plus a $30 rebate.
so $90.01 after PM
-$5 coupon = $85
+ tax
-$30 rebate = $55 ish
It was a better PM last week, when staples was selling them for $139.95

I decided not to buy it, while it is a good deal I would need to buy 2 new Wireless PC-cards (for my 2 laptops) to take advantage of the speed.

Wow! Staples, who is always so picky with PMs, didn't notice it was the American site?!!! It was an RFDer who noticed it??
Perhaps there are Staples spies that check these forums when they get hit with PMs to see what excuses they can give. Usually it's us that say it is invalid. (like the colour, etc.) So next time, even if anybody notices that there is an error, keep it to yourself.
And see if Del, Chris, Mike, or Kerri actually finds an excuse. 
I think I got this before for around $10 AR. Just remember NOT to use the 2.45 beta firmware. The wired portion is fine, but when my friends tried connecting to it wirelessly, it wouldn't get a signals even when it is beside the router! 2.50 works fine so far, according to my friends, since I don't have a wireless notebook.
