Anybody know if these are the best deals of the year from Apple?

Do they have anything similar right before or after Christmas??? I have my eye on the 64GB Touch...it is $358 instead of $400. With that price, I could even console myself a bit if the camera does appear in the Touch this the spring. The reason I am buying directly from Apple is the engraving.

Well, if you are lucky you get the non-flickering screen. Hold all 10 fingers for that. :-(

I am still waiting for the good quality anti-glare screens like those from white iMacs. Hopefuly next model will have those.
