I just bought a Tungsten E at overstock.com for $100. It's better than
my previous Tungsten and cost 1/3 as much. It was a refurb unit that
was supposedly blemished (still can't find the blemish, except for the
big gooey sticker on the back). It came with the power supply, USB
cable (no stooopid proprietary power/data cable), cover, stylus (1) ,
and CD.
