Be super quick to reserve one now if you want ne of these babies as they seem to be £99 versus £150 elsewhere...the catch is that they seem to be only available up North so I can't have one :mad:
Seems to be Merseyside / Lancashire /Lancaster- wonder if we'll have em in London soon.
Elsewhere:-

PS Takes standard 3.5" drive so £70 a dabs for 300gb and falling!

Guess what... 'Due to high demand the following item(s) are currently unavailable'...
Seems to ring a bell somewhere...No reliance should be placed on the above.0 -
i bought one of these for £160.. pretty good. can i litereally take it apart and put a different standard hdd in it?0

I can't find one at any store

Me neither....well not at a store near the M25 anyway.
Any standard 3.5" HDD will suffice if upgrading and yes you can upgrade it too but not sure if you can just plug an additional external one via usb or whether it replaces the original internal HDD with a larger capacity one.
I desperately need one soon as my laptop is full but as not available for a good price near me I'm thinking I'll wait and see if one comes to London soon or get another similar one soon to be released the Rapsody RSH-300 but its not got a firm date yet so may be a long wait else I'll give up and pay 50% more than fellow MSE'er and just get one myself.
