It's not like there has been any <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/18/amazon-129-toshiba-hd-a3-with-7-hd-dvds-and-free-shipping/">shortage</a> of <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/14/hd-dvd-fires-back-slashes-hardware-and-software-prices/">deals</a> on HD DVD hardware over the past few <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/12/06/toshiba-hd-a3-with-12-free-movies-available-at-wal-mart-secret/">months</a> or <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/11/02/how-to-buy-a-toshiba-hd-a3-for-87/">anything</a>, but now that Toshiba (and <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/02/19/lg-not-ditching-hd-dvd-just-yet-hopes-to-accommodate-early-adop/">almost</a> everyone else on the planet) has officially <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/02/19/official-hd-dvd-dead-and-buried-format-war-is-over/">yanked support</a> for the format, prices are beginning to plummet en masse. First on the docket is the HD-A3 at Circuit City, which now sits at just $99.99 and comes with seven free titles, two of which are <em>300</em> and <em>Bourne Identity</em>. So yeah, if you've been waiting for this moment to snap up the failed format for cheap, hop on in -- but if we were betting souls, we'd say holding out just a wee bit longer would actually be in your wallet's best interest.<br /><br />[Thanks, Dustin]<h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href=http://www.circuitcity.com/ccd/productDetail.do?oid=191903&WT.mc_n=67&WT.mc_t=U&cm_ven=COMPARISON%20SHOPPING&cm_cat=PRICEGRABBER&cm_pla=DATAFEED-%3EPRODUCTS&cm_ite=1%20PRODUCT&cm_keycode=67>Read</a> | <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/02/20/so-it-begins-toshibas-hd-a3-falls-to-99-at-circuit-city-come/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/forward/1119669/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a> | <a href="http://www.technorati.com/cosmos/search.html?rank=&fc=1&url=http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/02/20/so-it-begins-toshibas-hd-a3-falls-to-99-at-circuit-city-come/" title="Linking Blogs">Linking Blogs</a> | <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/02/20/so-it-begins-toshibas-hd-a3-falls-to-99-at-circuit-city-come/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a><br /><br /><p><map name="google_ad_map_65-1119669"><area shape="rect" href="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/imgclick/65-1119669?pos=0" coords="1,2,367,28" /><area shape="rect" href="http://services.google.com/feedback/abg" coords="384,10,453,23" /></map><img usemap="#google_ad_map_65-1119669" border="0" src="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/ads?format=468x30_aff_img&client=ca-aol_weblogs_xml&channel=Engadget_Mobile_07_RSS&output=png&cuid=65-1119669&url=http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/02/20/so-it-begins-toshibas-hd-a3-falls-to-99-at-circuit-city-come/" /></p>
