I signed up a while back and also received the $100 coupon today. Not sure if you will get the coupon right away or will get on the next promo they send out.
The email subject: "An extra $100 off a Snapdragon Chromebook — who's in?"
The email body:
"The new school year is just around the corner.
We know that transition can be tough, so we're here to ease the transition for our Snapdragon Insiders. How? We've got a fantastic deal for Snapdragon® powered Lenovo Chromebooks.
Best-in-class connectivity. Leading-edge performance. Extraordinary battery life. Whether you're heading back to the classroom, studying remotely, or something in between, Snapdragon powered Lenovo Chromebooks provide a reliable, always-connected solution for students and teachers.
And we've got a pretty sweet deal for our Snapdragon Insiders: We worked with Best Buy to offer you a coupon code for an extra $100 off of either the Lenovo Chromebook Duet 3 or Lenovo Chromebook Duet 5—both powered by Snapdragon.*
The coupon is redeemable from July 25 through August 28 at Bestbuy.com and can be added to any existing discount. Simply use the coupon code at checkout on one of these great Chromebooks:
Powered by the Snapdragon 7C Gen 2 Compute Platform, the 11" Lenovo Chromebook Duet 3 is the ideal device for school (and play). The 2-in-1 Chromebook is fast, flexible, fanless, and lightweight. With our code for $100 off, it brings the total for the Duet 3 down from $379 to $279.
The Lenovo Chromebook Duet 5 kicks it up a notch. Powered by the Snapdragon 7C Gen 2 Compute Platform, the 13" Duet 5 is ultralight and slim, with a detachable keyboard, so this Chromebook is all about ultra-versatile and ultra-portable. The Duet 5 is on sale for $379 from 8/1-8/7, and that extra $100 off brings the total to $279.
So, are you ready for the next-level experiences Snapdragon delivers?"
The OLED is going to be great for entertainment and media consumption.
To be super nerdy, I'm going to hook up my Thinkpad Bluetooth keyboard so I can see if the red trackpoint works!

Maybe. I had it fully updated though
Just exchange if you happened to get a lemon. Happens to everyone. Incredible unit for the price point.
Did you fix it?

Google It. As I understand it, ARM Chromebooks run 32 bit because they run faster/better/more power efficiently that way. They still utilize their full RAM and 64 Bit Processors because they run multiple parallel processes simultaneously.
The only negative impact I have noticed is that some Linux apps (like Brave Browser) have not been compiled for ARM Processors.
I can live with that for the $100 Snapdragon coupon and longer battery life.

I think the coupon is sadly out of stock.
On the upside, even if you did not get a coupon, if you are registered on the Snapdragon mailing list they may do it again. I missed out on the 1st round $100 coupon a couple of months ago, so was fast to respond to this one.
