    Have just ordered and paid for 2 units. The final total worked out at £22.15 per unit, which is less than originally stated. Nice one, considering I paid over £100 for a 320GB unit last year!

    Think you will probably find that this one on Amazon, unavailable, is the model you are looking for. Specs match as do the size and weight.

  • Has anyone been charged for this yet on their account? Just checked my credit card online and it is showing on the 'account balance' (which was zero before so I know 100% it is the dell order) but not on the list of transaction (which I asssume ahould appear after the normal 3 days or so).

    I was always under the impression that if they have taken to money, they have entered into a legally binding contract. Is this correct?

    Also, at the bottom of the order confirmation pdf it says 'Dell will not be responsible for typographical, pricing or other errors and reserves the right to cancel any orders based on such errors.', yet on this same email on the T&C's pdf it quotes 'Dell accepts Customer’s offer to purchase under this Agreement & makes a binding Agreement by issuing an Order Confirmation. Order confirmation is binding except, in the case of consumers only, where there is a discrepancy between order confirmation and what consumer ordered and where discrepancy is unacceptable to the consumer.'

    Anybody have any ideas where we legally stand on this one?

    That's a great find - I'll be ordering one for myself (not sure if it's already been mentioned, but if you order through ipoints you get 3 ipoints per £1 spent)
    Au Res.,
