Ads in the May 5, _New_York_Times_ list a price of $2500 for the 2000SX.
I didn't call to learn whether they really have the machine in stock.

I suspect that if you wait a couple weeks, the discounted price will
drop.  The Toshiba appears to be a very nice notebook PC, but there are a
lot of nice  notebook PCs, some of them running 20 mhz 386SX's,
shipping with 2 megs of ram, DOS, and other stuff for less than
the price of the 2000SX.

It will be interesting to see what happens with the pricing of the IBM
notebook.  I suspect that like  Toshiba and Compaq, IBM will also have
to drop their price.
