Check out this auction on eBay - http://cgi.ebay.com/HP-iPAQ-...ViewItem

The guy is selling a 6515 for $140 on a buy it now but... Look at his feedback. There are different user names leaving the same exact cheeseball bad grammar feedbacks. This has to be a scam... Beware...

Are you sure? The stock pictures in the auction really instill a sense of security though. I really like this feedback:

I think the ??? stuff is dues to Chinese characters not showing up on our systems because even the category names of the sold GPS units have ??? in them. I just don;t like several users leaving the same exact text in the feedback. Oh well... I'll just keep looking.
