[aprssig] RC-710 Cheap!

It was a limited time offer, but it was supposed to go through January 
15 or something like that.  Bummer, I guess I thought about it too long 
and I had a nice gift card from Christmas that would have fit it quite 
nicely.

Google's cached copy of the page shows a -$5.00 HRO Holiday Disc (Exp: 
01/15/11).  I wonder if the $150.00 discount was a (very expensive) 
typo?  Has anyone that ordered one actually had the order filled at the 
crazy low price?
