Nerd and other US hubbers, has the Xmas deals started?? I am not seeing great deals at bestbuy.com
Motorola reduces Xoom Wi-Fi to 21.5K, 3G price 25K With dollar raising to INR 53 rupees, this is exactly same price as available in US. Initially this tablet, 3G was selling for INR 33K and Wi-Fi version for around INR 31K. So this is a superb deal.
Nerd & other US Hubbers, Starting from 23rd dec 2011, I was daily scanning for deals. I was checking slickdeals.net to the extent that antha site e thenji pora aLAvukku, for every 2 hrs. Also was separately checking bestbuy, walmart, kmart, frys and many such, for interesting Tablet deals.
Nothing interesting, appeared till today! Only deal which is slightly OK for me is the Acer Iconia tab, that too refurbished for $298. That one comes with 90 day warranty so I am still thinking of buying it or not. Added to that Motorola xoom reduced its india prices to Rs.21.5K which is almost equal to the US prices, that too considering the ever increasing dollar value!
There was not even one single deal (atleast what i saw online) comparable to the thanksgiving day deals(bestbuy - 7" acer for $169, 10" acer for $229 & asus for just $299) I missed those deals in few blinks, and thought that this was just trailer and Xmas New Year deals will be the main picture :( but totally nothing interesting deals! Any idea u gys came across interesting deal for tablets?!?

Sakala, there will not be any deals for Christmas/New Year. The deals are usually over with thanksgiving. The probability of finding a deal post thanksgiving is the same throughout the year. Christmas/New Year dont matter. Keep checking slickdeals, you ll be lucky some day :-)
Thanks Nerd,
I am glued to slicdeals.net :lol:
btw there is a deal - Open box Acer Iconia from PCParts - http://slickdeals.net/f/3787276-Acer...w-Open-Box-199
Some are complaining about the seller. But i Like the deal (warranty 90 days) Any Idea about it?
