At Fry's Electronics last week, they had two pallets full of SMC7004VWBR,
wireless routers with four wired ports.  After rebate, $39.95.

Now they are all gone.  They don't even have that model on the shelf in
small quantity.  

If the SMC7004VWBR still suffers WAP droput after inactivity, I suppose
there will be a couple of hundred upset users soon.  If the firmware fixes
it, they may be only temporarily angry.

But what if these are bum units, and the idea was to flush them out of
inventory.  If people sent in the rebates, they can't get a refund.
