Okay here are a list of places that are selling them for $319 Shipped by 2nd Day Fedex etc.

1. www.autotoys.com, they have it in stock for $319.00 shipped (2nd day air)or $314 if the order is faxed in.

2. Uncles Stereos $299 + Shipping $319 total.

3. J and R $320 delivered FedEx 2nd Day ($299 + sh)

and

4. TSTP $309 + Shipping via Fedex 2nd Day roughly $314. With the Docking station added it roughly $393. Pretty good deal. (In stock to confirmed 28th April)

If someone has found someone cheaper again or has found a better price on both the Pronto and Docking station shipped please post here. I saw one in the newsgroup for $388 for both shipped however he had only 2 left and it was COD from Home Theatre Design Group. Oh well.

Why dont you try buying a local AUTHORIZED dealer which can provide you with quality service and support.

I waited to get a Pronto for a few months, since the philips website showed no dealers in my area (Roanoke,VA). Since I was ordering it mail order anyway I waited to get a good price.

However, about a month after I got my Pronto I went to a local hi-fi store to buy some B&W speakers. While I was standing there - to my surprise I saw a Pronto on the desk! I asked him if he sold the Pronto. He said he had been selling the Pronto since it came out and he has even called Philips about their website dealer locator. It seems to me that the Philips website only shows dealers of the Multimedia Computer thing and does not have specific Pronto dealers.

Just seems to me that Philips has alienated some of its authorized dealers and forced people to go mail-order. BTW the dealer in Roanoke,VA is Sound Decision

I received my Pronto and charging station from Kevin and Eric (see above) on Wednesday. (I was out of town so I'm just starting to play with it now.) I ordered it last Thursday. It came in perfect condition, an excellent price ($349 + $15 shipping) and was exactly as advertised. I recommend these guys!
