Based on my experience of going to 3 different Costcos and almost making an hour drive to a fourth, when calling to check inventory, have them check the physical inventory, not just what the computer says. At my 3rd store, where I was told there were 3 but all they had was the display, I was told there were 6 at another store about an hour away. I was on a mission to get one of these handy little things so I was about to make the drive when I asked the customer service counter to call the store to verify and sure enough, they didn't have any either. I ended up going home and buying the AOA 150-1049 (black) from Buy.Com for $399 with free standard shipping or 2nd day shipping for about $5. I placed the order online on a Saturday and I received my new Acer Wednesday morning.
