Froogle is far from perfect. I would prefer using price comparison service at http://www.akabook.com/ to shop for the cheapest textbooks. The reason is:
1. Froogle is cached results, and thus does not reflect the most updated prices.
2. For book search results, it will just list all the book results with similar titles from all stores. If I search by keywords or title, the result will be a mess.
3. Not all major book stores are included in the listings.
For electronics, I think pricegrabber is much better than froogle.
