I've had similar bad luck with compusa. After walking around the store and not being able to find it I asked a red shirt. That didn't go well since he thought I was confused. He kept asking me if it was a phone. The first one got tired of dealing with me and just said they didn't have it. I pulled up the compusa website on one of the computers in the store and from there I could get the inventory for that store. That got me past the "we don't have it" answer.
<br><br>It turns out they have it in the case because "it has a stylus and those always get stolen" so they aren't on display.<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 2/27/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">John B. Holmblad

while at a local Compusa outlet near me on the hunt for something else
I discovered the Nokia 770 on display. Nice!<br>
<br>
Unfortunately I can't say the same for Compusa. There was no price
shown for the product or even a display indicating what it was. I
simply recognized it by its form factor. When I finally was able to get
a hold of a sales rep (the store was sparsely populated with such folk
at ~5:30 P.M. local time) he did at least know what the price was.
Granted this is a sample of only one, but my recommendation to any
Nokia marketing/branding folk on this list is get the product into Best
Buy if it is not already there and don't expect too much from the
Compusa relationship. <br>
