    Since dealextreme are not selling R4's anymore, this is the next best I can find.
    They do, you are just not looking hard enough! though I would not bother with a R4, I ordered acekard2i and a DSTT last week. One is already on the way, not sure which.

    When not looking hard enough means a dodgy link in the forums I'd rather not buy, but thanks anyway for the info. From what I can see they pulled as pressure was put on them from the copyright peeps.

    Bought loads of R4's in the past without any issues, whats wrong with them? Is the DSTT better for a specific reason?

    Pop back once delivered, is always an option I suppose.

    It was actually a DX moderator/staff in another thread there who hinted they were still on sale. I got all the confirmations etc as normal. Apparently it is a paypal thing, I think paypal obey US laws and I think they are now illegal there but not elsewhere.

    I have just seen warnings against the r4 since there are so many fakes, and people saying they might not be as well supported anymore. Many of them only take up to 2GB cards, I think ones that do SDHC could be fakes -not certain though just going by the advice I see most.

    Cool, thanks for the info. All R4's are fakes as the company that has the copyright on them no longer makes them, however, being a fake is not an issue and in many ways the modern R4's are way better than the original.
