@raypin who is your dealer and how much did you pay for them?
mmm......my dealer here quoted a reasonable price. By reasonable I mean that it was in line with my expectations re: a totl HP like the 800. Sorry can't reveal the price. Suffice it to say that I did not hesitate to pre-order, at the quoted price, without the benefit of an extended audition. I love the HD800. I hate the HD 800. I expect to change that to: I love the HD 800 S. I love the HD 800 S. My only apprehension: I hope the HP is more scratch/chipping-resistant than the 800.
