The 26th is a Wednesday, 28th is Friday,silly article writers. :p

Though I'm sure those 500 consoles will go quickly, they always do in these sales.

Id go for the Family Bundle myself.

So..how do you get it? That deal is ridiculous. I don't even want one, but for that price..I'll buy two, simply because it's a blu-ray player.

just get on amazon the day of the deal and try to be one of the first 500 to get it. good luck though, the past 2 years i've tried getting in on one of the deals, amazon wouldn't even load.

Actually not. Apparently it is going to be a lottery.
