Brian's Brain

Courtesy of the blogosphere, I've got a few killer deals to pass along this Tuesday evening:

1. Say, for example, you were interested in picking up one of those fully backwards-compatible 60 GByte PlayStation 3s (plus five free Blu-ray movies) before that particular console SKU's closeout inventory is depleted from the Sony Store, or for that matter motivated in purchasing anything else Sony-ish and $299 or higher. Head here to get a $150 post-purchase credit....that is, if this acquisition is your first one on a new or existing Sony Card account. Thanks, PlayStation 3 News!
2. Interested in one of those Sony Readers unveiled over 1.5 years ago and finally in full production? Don't want to pay $300? Does $50 sound better? And how do 100 free ebooks sound as a topper? If you're sold, head here. Thanks, Techbargains!

As far as I can tell, you can still take advantage of deal #1 after applying for a Sony Card via deal #2....that is, of course, if you get your card prior to the purchase-by date of November 30, found in deal #1's fine print. But I may be wrong here. Readers, whaddya think?

p.s....yes, I signed up for a Sony Card, with a Sony Reader in mind. Prying Eyes followup to a conceptual (and controversial) editorial, donchaknow....
