Last week I spent some time looking in local stores for a PS4 without a lot of luck. I found an ExtremeTech article about getting a PS4 online and signed up for an account at WiiAlerts.com. The alerts work as advertised. That said, there does not appear to be a way to delete your account or info :(
I created a Ruby script that will send you a text message via Twilio whenever a new item is added to the WiiAlert.com homepage. I intended on filtering for PS4 results but included all items to get started. An interesting side-effect is that I am now receiving texts for all the hot things!
- Battlefield 4 - Xbox One
- 16GB Wi-Fi Retina - Gray/White
- Halo 4 Limited Edition
- LeapFrog LeapPad2 Explorer Kids Learning Tablet Pink
- Lego Minecraft The Nether 21106
- PS4 Bundles
I hope that someone finds this useful :)
UPDATE: I forgot to mention that I tried to be a good net-citizen and not be
overly aggresive in my requests. Unfortunately WiiAlerts.com does not seem to
support etag
