[OM] OT ScanWit purchase strategies

Based several testimonials from list members and some online reviews, I am
considering buying an Acer ScanWit 2720S.  Online prices seem to run in the
$450-475 (US) range.  There are at least four serial ebay sellers hawking
this model, new, and their auctions have averaged around $353 closing price.
It seems that they are getting the unit at a dealer cost that allows them to
make money selling it at $100 off the discounted retail price.

I'm pretty cheap.  Anyone have any thoughts on how to pursue the lowest
possible price for a NIB ScanWit?  I have emailed two of the CONUS sellers
asking their outright sale price.  Of course I could just start bidding
eBay - one unit has gone at $320.75 auction price.

Do any of the North Texas list members own one of these scanners that I
might see in person?  I haven't found one in a store to look at.
