My local Best Buy and Meijer stores have had the previous gen hardware discounted for about a week. As for Apple, I believe they move all the old iPods to the refurb store and sell it discounted as refurbished, even though they're still brand new.
echoing the requests of a few others, we definitely need to hear Cheapy's take on the GiantBomb subscription fiasco. And maybe Wombat can swear at them for me too?
I played a whole lot of Generations back in high school. My friends and I spent more time with that than Jetters, so I'd definitely recommend Generations.
The VW models from Walmart don't have audio out, so if that's important to you you'll want to find your way to a Sears or Circuit City where they sell the VX model. I almost bought a 37 inch from Walmart and was glad I didn't when I discovered this.
