How often do HP $250 instant rebates and $250 coupon codes come around?

Hi, so i'm ordering a laptop soon, for college and whatnot, and my dad wants me to find the best deal possible. I'm looking into the HP HDX 16t with the following configs: Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 1 (64-bit) Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor T6600 (2.2GHz, 2MB L2 Cache, 800MHz FSB) FREE Upgrade to 4GB DDR2 System Memory (2 Dimm) from 3GB DDR2 System Memory (2 Dimm) FREE Upgrade to 320GB 7200RPM SATA Hard Drive from 250GB 7200RPM SATA Hard Drive 512MB NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT 16.0" diagonal High Definition HP BrightView Infinity Display (1366x768) LightScribe SuperMulti 8X DVD+/-RW with Double Layer Support Webcam + Fingerprint Reader with HP Imprint Finish (Fluid) Intel Next-Gen Wireless-N Mini-card No TV Tuner w/remote control Full Size Backlit Keyboard 6 Cell Lithium Ion Battery No Productivity Software HP Home & Home Office Store in-box envelope right now, there is a coupon code for $250 off, and an instant rebate WAS another $250, but is now only $200, because it said on gotapex.com that i had until monday for the deal. it went down, so my dad wants me to wait, and i guess what i'm asking is: -are instant $250 rebates for HPs often? -are 30% or $250 coupon codes frequent? (i just discovered coupon codes a couple of days ago, so i don't know much about them) thanks ahead of time; also, input on my laptop specs, or comments on anything else that might be helpful, would be great (:

1. Just bought a $440 compaq laptop prices are falling. Wait and see.
2. i got the same laptop its is great but personally get a bigger battery the battery only lasts a hour and a half to 2 hours so got to a 9 cell or 12 cell and also upgrade to a 1 gig dedicated graphics card and and up grade the processor to a 2.5 or higher and for college get a bigger hard drive
