    Click. Not too shabby, even if an equivalent model can be had for about the same money on Amazon...

    Note that they won't be delivered until after Jan. 18th.

    Sorry, didn't realise there was p&p on top — on the product page it says "€69,95 (+ 0,00)".

    Better from Amazon, so (whose customer service is superb). I was just amazed to see an iBood "deal" that actually was one! :D

    I bought a few items off ibood in recent months and found them very efficient.
    The p&p is usually a pain but in this case shipping is actually free

    i got one of these months ago off amazon and maybe its just my one but the usb connection is awful in that the cable doesnt fit in tightly. Meaning if its loose at all it will only run at usb 2.0 speeds.

    It's the connection at the bottom of this picture.

    yeah, a family member has had an S2 (hard drive not phone) for a good while. It's never caused any problems, might be quite cheap too if you were to look, USB2 though.
