Did your Newegg order ship already? You could probably cancel it if it's still being "processed"

Yeah ... it is in step 5. It has shipped and will be here Friday.

Besides ... I couldn't let that coupon go unattended ... I bought a Creative Zen ...
Creative ZEN 4GB - Black - 70PF216200111 - Buy.com

I got it for $65.24 shipped ... before they raised the price.

[It will probably go to my Daughter for her birthday in August]
