[QUOTE="Kias, post: 301286, member: 9496"] Pulled the trigger on a P7800 this morning. Couldn't resist. Last Monday I finally decided on this one. I shop around on line all over the place. Hit Amazon first and saw it for $373.94 sold by J&R Music and Computer World. (A very legit company). Then went to B&H, Adorama, they both had it for $540ish... Couldn't figure out why it was so high, and went back to Amazon where the price had now jumped to $546.95, but no longer sold by J&R, it was sold and shipped by Amazon. Thought that was really strange, so decided to put off the purchase. Didn't really want to spend much over 350 on a P&S. Went straight to J&R's website jrmusic.com to find they closed their brick and mortar store (and apparently their website) so they can build and open a really cool looking store in 2015. But it said I could still buy from them on Amazon and Ebay in the meantime. Well, I don't know what happened to the $373 P7800 So I started looking at P330 and P340 instead. Almost pulled the trigger on a P340 this morning, but thought I'd look at the P7800 again. Low-n-behold, it came up on Amazon sold and shipped by J&R Music again for $373.94! So as fast as I could click buy, enter my password, and do all that, it was done.
