| These guys seem pretty reputable, but I agree I prefer Newegg! I don't know what is taking them so long to get these in stock... http://www.resellerratings.com/seller2064.html |
| Thx for info... I just ordered the BenQ 1640 from NCIX  Brian... |
| How much was shipping on your order? |
| 3 day delivery with extra insurance was @ $19. ( a bit high...but I don't mind) |
| It's coming "OEM"... meaning that I'll need the cable, or only that there is no software, and I'll have to go to the BenQ site for firmware...? |
| I am sure it will be delivered with firmware

| Sorry... not what I meant... Updated firmware... |
| Retail doesnt come with cable here at any rate.. so need one anyway. only comes with two screws too, cheapskates. |
| Hard really to tell exactly which one you will get -- "B" is usually retail, "G" is usually OEM - but I've gotten retail on OEM before. Most people seem to think the "B" retail firmwares are the best. Let us know what you get and how you like the service from Ncix. |
| 2 Screws? thats cheap, good thing I still have my crazy glue

For way cheaper drives, check eGlobalonline.com They don't have DW1640 yet, but it will be cheaper when they do. I've never paid shipping for these guys, but I do business with NCIX and eGlobal all the time. Expect awesome customer service, esp. if you speak some form of Chinese.

| NCIX is very reputable; at least here in Canada. Their shipping is a little on the high side though, but they are a very good store. |
| newegg is way better than all of them imo

In Canada, newegg sucks. It depends where you're ordering from

| I went ahead and ordered a Black one from NCIX. I hope to have it by Wednesday... now to sell off my DW1620. |
| NCIX is a VERY reputable store here in Canada, possibly the most reputable store. http://www.resellerratings.com/seller2064.html |
