    Hi all,

    I noticed Asda are selling a 4GB SD card for £7 the other day. It may not come with StarTrek, but it comes without spam :-)

    What is that supposed to mean?
    What if the Hokey Pokey really is what it's all about !!!
  • I got mine last week. I enjoyed watching the movie but there were a few minor problems.
    1. It is fiddly to get registered.
    2. I couldn't burn the movie to DVD because my dvd player doesn't have a DivX code. (I had to load it on to my laptop and then plug that into the TV)
    3.The movie stops in about 3 places and has to be restarted.

    I got mine today and it seemed easy enough to register to my laptop. Also registered to my blu-ray player and burned a dvd. I tried it out for a few minutes and the picture was very good; didn't watch the whole thing so don't know if there are problems later. Not too concerned as I got this primarily as a nifty 4gb usb drive with the addition of a movie I've already seen and may or may not watch again someday.

    There is an eBay seller listing them at £5.50 + £1 P+P - he's accepting £5 through best offer though - saving £1 on the original price (and better than with cashback included).

    Not sure I can put the seller's name here, but search for star trek USB, over 10 are available.

    Good spot, just got one for £3.50 exc P&P :j
  • Mine came this morning, as a perfect leaving gift for a Trekkie fan. He is delighted and so am I!

    IS there another good deal on USB memory sticks (4GB or 8GB)? I need a new one, one with fast read/write speed too.

    The shape of this Star Trek one probably wouldn't fit the recessed USB port on my PC anyway. Looks a bit bulky.

    I got a generic three-pack from play.com - well pleased :)

    I had a problem registering it to my DVD player - my PC sat at 100% for over an hour doing the verification, so I gave up.

    Probably get the 2-DVD version from Amazon for £6 :undecided
  • I ordered mine on the 1st Sept and got an email saying it had been dispatched on the 2nd Sept. Over 2 weeks later and still no sign of it. I waited 10 working days (as requested on their website) before contacting them via email to which I've still not yet had even a courtesy reply. I've just phoned them directly to be greeted with an automated voice message telling me that in the unlikely event of a missing order I actually need to wait 15 working days before contacting them.

    Jokers.

    noaliasmike, I had the same problem as you - got a despatch note a couple of weeks ago, and nothing. Was about to call them when it showed up today!
