Nope - was defo 512mb and 120GB, still have the bookmark for the page on Asda (price has gone back up since). :)

I heard Expansys were having stock problems, and they charge £6 delivery whereas Ebuyer is free. The Asda offer was same price but less RAM (512mb).

I'm trying to install Ubuntu now (it comes with a Fedora variant), but am having technical issues, but working on it. Hardware wise I'm impressed and happy with it so far from a quick play! To confirm to people - the multicard reader doesn't take CF cards.

I've heard they are very good. Biggest downside is battery life - it's about 2.5 hours. Thought you can upgrade the battery, but 2.5 hours is plenty for me. Apparently run WinXP very nicely indeed, and have read people running Windows 7 on there too.

Me too! :( :) :( :|

Not me. If you just want more space then you could buy another 12-16GB of cards for the £68 price. I'd only use this sort of thing as backup to be sure in case my cards died.

Ebuyer announced £100 off these today: http://www.ebuyer.com/product/146879 Acer Aspire One A150 Intel Atom N270 1.6 GHz, 1GB RAM, 120GB HDD,8.9" 1024x600 display. Integrated card reader. Great deal. I think I'm going to get one to backup my cards when on the move.

Can someone explain DT / DG difference? :|

I believe the article is probably the same one I read in the Daily Mail yesterday, the online version is here: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1194843/You-ban-parents-taking-pictures-schools-told.html.

Considering your tight budget I'd say a Sony A200 is a better choice then the A350 (a few more megapixels, but same sensor, and live view). The Sony A200 can be had for less than £250, and maybe as low as £200 if you get lucky. With the kit lens of 18-70mm which could be you 'regular' lens...

I'd not seen either of these and they are both very useful. Thanks. :)

This really sucks. Very sorry for you and fingers crossed it still turns up somehow, or at least the pictures do.

Welcome! :D

There were - they must have sold out. :(

Git! ;)
