We have been contacted by Acer that the cashback is available for New Zealand only hence not available in Australia. The product however was available in Myer for $341 after 10% off. Just that $79 cashback is not available to Australians.
Original Post
379 with 10% off = 341 - $79 Acer Rebate = 262
All clearance computers at Myer are extra 10% off.
While this model is sold out online (since last weekend), some stores may still carry stock. Caste Hill NSW had stock last week.

***** UPDATE **********
Sorry for the confusion caused earlier in the thread.
Most sales staff at Myer are not aware about any Acer cash back programs.
Last week I bought a Acer S3 Ultrabook at Myer ($499, after 10% off from already discounted price of $559) and the sales person had no idea about the $79 cashback for the machine. Since then, I have successfully submitted my rebate application at Acer website.
Cashback is based on model and serial number. If the model number matches the cashback list and if no one has claimed a cashback for the given serial number and if the claim is within the dates specified by Acer, then Acer should honor that claim.
Having said that, it is still a good idea to double check cashback eligibility with Acer before any purchase.
So please double check with Acer before making any purchasing decisions.

Hi eeeee, I agree, so you got the last one :) Seems like you also got the 10% discount ! I can't believe that the lady has lied to me. This is disgraceful. I guess now I am pursuing to get my 10% discount from Myer. Also, I agree with what you said. I still want my $79 cash back too ! Let me know how you going to approach ACCC. I think I will do the same.
