A friend of mine ordered an A3000 through the Power-Up deal around Monday, and
it came in yesterday. (It was an A3000/25-50.) We're in Bloomington, IN.
However, it seems that Commodore is being flooded with orders for A3000's now.
(Especially seeing that your old manual covers are worth at least ~US$1k to
US$1.5k.)
