I just got an X-Box for $149 AR today!! My local FYE music store had them for sale at $179 with a $30 store rebate. The package was the Sega box with the S-controller and bonus games. They also threw in my choice of about five games (I chose NBA Inside Drive 2003). Also, they were giving as a bonus a copy of The Matrix DVD and a Matrix Reloaded poster.
They had PS2s under a similar $149 AR price.
The rebate is through Transworld, the parent company of Coconuts Music stores.
These stores are nationwide.

This deal was in Jersey City, New Jersey of all places.
Maybe this is how those $149 price rumors got going.
Edit: Here are the games that I can remember you could choose from: Any Platinum X-box Titles and titles such as NBA Inside Drive 2003, Amped, Blinx, Fuzion Frenzy, Oddworld.
Good Luck All!
