Thanks bittihuduga,
Cant see them honouring this though :mad: , same as previous mispriced items from other companies mentioned here before. Worth a try though as usual.

No, it's still there. You just need to go the electronics & accessories and then to external drives. It's first on the list

Definately almost gone here. You must be seeing a cache or something.

See

Must be me who ordered 2.

To be honest its a very good deal, perhaps not a misprice though.

New drives are coming out, possibly they just offloaded some stock.

No it's gone - checked last night and was still there - didn't buy though!!
Definitely removed now - there are other Iomega drives up but much more priceyhttp://accessories.euro.dell.com/sna/productlisting.aspx?c=uk&category_id=6359&cs=ukdhs1&l=en&sort=mfgname&~ck=anav&nf=~3~1242&navla=~3~1242.
