We’ve been big fans of ScotteVest as you can see from our previous reviews. We don’t just like ScotteVest gear because it has a lot of pockets, we also like that we can run cables throughout the coats and clothing so that our headphones aren’t hanging off when we don’t use them,. The personal area network, or PAN, allows you to keep your wires in check. There is also a weight management system built-in that will keep your gear from feeling like it would in a normal coat. The other thing we like about ScotteVest clothing is that it is comfortable and doesn’t scream geek.

Currently on sale are the following ScotteVest items: To save 40% use the coupon code 10SALE40.

Deal: ScotteVest 10th Anniversary 40% off Sale is a post by Josh Smith from Notebooks.com.

We’re elbow deep testing out the new OnLive Game System and thought we’d report that they are having a weekend sale on 2K Games.

This weekend users can get 50%-70% off many popular 2K Games titles including NBA2K11 and Major League Baseball 2k10. Each day of the four-day weekend there is a different game for sale as follows:

• Thursday – Mafia II for 50% off
• Friday – NBA 2K11 for 50% off
• Saturday – Borderlands Game of the Year Edition for 50% off
• Sunday – NBA 2K10 and MLB2K10 for 75% off

We gave a first look at the game system and our early testing shows that OnLive has pulled off an impressive thing with their online streaming gaming system. It’s not without issues, however.

We will be doing full reviews at both Notebooks.com and Gottabemobile.com. Until then, you can enjoy a free trial period playing on both Mac and PC and check out these great deals this weekend.

SCOTTEVEST 9th Anniversary sale tomorrow is a post by Amy from Notebooks.com.

Unfortunately, as with most of these types of great offers, there are a few restrictions you should know about. The deal goes live on December 5th and is scheduled to last through December 12th, or until stock runs out. It’s highly likely that demand will exceed supply, especially since the promotion only requires a minimum of 10 per store and doesn’t allow rainchecks. This special offer is not available online- you’ll actually have to visit a local Walmart. If you’re dead set on getting in on the deal, you should get there very early, well before 8 am. In fact, it may even be a good idea to camp outside the store in the morning! Good luck to everyone!

Holiday Shopping: Walmart’s $149 Nintendo Wii Console is a post by Bogdan Semida from Notebooks.com.

If you are hunting for deals on Macs,  however, finding info online has probably proved difficult. Besides this fake “leaked” advertisement, no real information is out there regarding Apple’s Black Friday plans. What’s a shopper to do? Give up and get a PC? NEVER! With a bit of research and a healthy dose of reasonable expectations, you can get a pretty good idea of what to expect from Apple.

Reasonable Expectations

Let’s start with the reasonable expectations. You’re not going to find a $500 MacBook. You’re probably not even going to find an $800 MacBook. Sorry. This may come as a surprise to those who have never dealt with Apple on Black Friday (or ever). So “why not?” is a reasonable question. Plenty of other retailers have heavy discounts on laptops during Black Friday, right? Why not Apple?

MacBook Pro

It would take a book to fully explain the logic of Apple’s business model, but the simple answer is this: Apple doesn’t want to be in the business of selling cheap computers, and it doesn’t really need to be either. Apple considers itself a premium computer maker, not just a computer maker, and heavy discounts can hurt that image. Plus, the company has a lock on the premium notebook market and recently posted it’s most profitable quarter ever without ever putting Macs on “sale” or offering a netbook. If you’re products were selling like hotcakes at full price, would you start putting them on sale? I didn’t think so.

Apple Retail Stores

None of this means that you can’t find some deals though – even at your nearest Apple store. Based on Apple’s previous Black Friday sales, I’d say that you can expect the following MacBook discounts at Apple’s retail stores on Friday:

• The New Unibody MacBook for $948 ($51 off)

• 13-inch 2.26Ghz MacBook Pro for $1148 ($51 off)

• 13-inch 2.53Ghz MacBook Pro for $1398 ($101 off)

• 15-inch 2.53Ghz MacBook Pro for $1598 ($101 off)

This is a very simple model that Apple has used for the past couple Black Friday events (tweaked for the current lineup), and I don’t see any reason that they will deviate from it this year. Note that I don’t expect discounts on all of the MacBook Pros – just the three least-expensive models. Of course, there will also likely be small discounts (think 10%) on the iPod Nano and iPod Touch, as well as a large variety of discounts on software, accessories and other items. But don’t be mislead – despite the mediocre discounts, Apple retail stores are bound to be buuuuuusy. If you *really* want that $100 off, show up early or plan on being there a while.

Apple Store. Get there early!

Of course, if and when Apple announces anything definite, you can be sure we will have that news here, so keep checking back. (Update: Apple has announced that there will be an one-day shopping event on Friday - as if we didn’t already know. No specifics are given regarding prices.)

Beyond the Apple Store

Some interesting deals can also be found at the other retailers that sell Apple products. Best Buy, for example, is offering a $150 gift card with the purchase of the new Unibody MacBook ($999). I know, I know – technically this is still full-price, but if you’re planning on doing additional shopping at Best Buy anyway, it could be akin to only paying $849. Not bad!

The New Unibody MacBook. $999 with $150 gift card at Best Buy.

If you’re looking for an iPod Touch, leaked ads from Target show them to be including $15 and $30 gift cards with the 8GB and 32GB iPod Touch models, respectively. Walmart is also rumored to be offering a $50 iTunes gift card with the iPod Touch. Personally, I’d rather have the cash discount that Apple’s stores will likely offer, but if you aren’t near an Apple store or don’t mind the gift cards, these are both pretty good deals.

And don’t forget the smaller Apple resellers. Experiences will vary from store to store, but I’ve seen these smaller shops offer some fairly compelling Black Friday sales on MacBook. If you’re not sure about where to find one, try Apple’s Where to Buy web page and use the Find a Reseller search. If you find a worthwhile deal in your area, feel free to share them with others in the comments!

Black Friday: Buyer’s Guide for Apple MacBooks and iPods (Updated) is a post by Jeremy from Notebooks.com.

That’s right this Saturday Walmart stores will offer the HP Pavilion G60-519WM Entertainment Laptop for $298 in stores while supplies last.  For $298 you get a 15.6″ screen, Intel Celeron processor, 3 GB of RAM, 250 GB hard drive and a Lightscribe DVD burner with Dual Layer support.

One thing to note is that this notebook uses an Intel Celeron processor rather than a faster dual-core or Core 2 duo processor; but it will handle everyday items like browsing the web, managing your photo collection and working on documents.

Just like last year’s Black Friday discounts on the HP G 60 series of notebooks this model number, 519WM, is exclusive to this discounted version of the HP G 60 notebooks. If you want to compare prices and specs you should look for similarly equipped HP Pavilion G 60 notebooks; rather than looking for the exact model at other retailers.

Similar notebooks at Walmart are in the $450 dollar range, and given the inclusion of Windows 7 and OK hardware, this deal is good for someone looking to do basic computing.

MacMall is selling previous generation MacBook Pros at huge discounts. For the price of an aluminum MacBook you can get a MacBook Pro that’s about a year behind in specs, but still more powerful than the new MacBooks.
