    Purchased two Flashtrax XT 40 gb models in Staples Salisbury yesterday at 3pm. They came with the media adapters and Scart adapter. Staples had a further four left after my purchase.

    Their phone number is 01722 341675

    Re the firmware download, should the file extension be .bin or .rar as I seem to have downloaded both but the Upgrade procedure only refers to the .bin


    would've been nice to thank me for putting the rar version up on the net :-)
    money saving my @rse.
    I've spent 10x as much as I would if I had never discovered this website :-)

    Yeah this did occur to me, with the appropiate kit , you can easily make up a Hard disc Camcorder.
    And how much do Hard disc camcorder's cost? £££££££'S

    Got an 80gb version today in Southport for £149.99 - they knocked £50 off cos the 40gb was out of stock. Chuffed.

    i managed to go back to a store i bought my original one today and got a another one, still had boxes left out from the last time i went, asked a different sales guy and he found one, if someone meeds one I will let go because i got my daughter one already, otherwise i'll stick it on some forum classifieds and maybe ebay lastly,
    Listen to what people say, but watch what people what people do!!
