Buying new T60/T60p Widescreen

Hi all, I hope this post is in the right forum. I'm going to US from Europe next week, I'll spend 6 days in Boston, so I was hoping to buy a new T60/T60p widescreen there.
I'm not sure if the prices in shops will match those Lenovo has online. Can anyone advise where should I look for a good deal? Any place online that can ship to hotel and take european credit card (I doubt it, but still)?
Thanks.

Stop taking advantage of our weak dollar!
I just looked up Thinkpad prices at Circuit City and Best Buy (the only two places I know of where you can get them in person) and the prices looked competitive with Lenovo's. And I've heard reports of people convincing them to match prices online, but I don't think this is store policy. As far as buying one online, I don't have any useful advice. Maybe you could convince an online retailer but it would probably involve faxing in reams of documentation. It might be worth a shot, though -- I'm sure the savings would be considerable.

Well, if the difference in price lies within 100-150$ range, I would preffer to buy one in person, although there goes a question of availability, since I want specific configuration. Anyway, thanks for the advise.
