It'll retail at £150, 141 is hardly a nice round price point.
I prefer the minimal appearance and weight of the memory sticks, hence I won't be going for it. Sure, it'll just be a slight added weight, but right now it's balanced, and adding some to either end will make it iffy.
The HDD isn't even made by Datel anyway; that privilege belongs to the consortium of Far East manufacturers who have the factories to do so. I'm guessing it's the same ones used for iPod minis.

Actually it does if you think about it.
Who's to say that crap quality doesn't extend to their other products?

At current rates, $249 is around £141 - so it's not too bad.

But this is a HDD - Hard Disk Drive - implying magnetic media, not memory.
In principle it may be similar to the various types of non-volatile RAM, but they're very different things.

Good stuff, though it is a bit pricey for a 4GB HD.£100-120 would have been a better price point.
Compared to the current range of cards though, it's far cheaper. I just bought 2x 2GB Memory sticks by the way - goodbye to this month's rent!

But you store stuff on it.

Strictly speaking, a HDD isn't 'memory'.
Storage?
'Hard disk memory' is a proper term right?

What's memory got to do with a HDD?
Shame Datel uses crap memory really.
