I'm pretty sure the price a few days ago was ~$130. Pricing is wrong on the product page ($9999 lol), so check out the pricing list instead:

120GB Sandisk for $129 as well.
Happy days <$1/GB SSDs.
Update: Link corrected thank rtn.
it's cheaper than that $10,000 HDMI cable … and for the money, i'd rather an SSD
who said it is SE? I hope it is.
But it doesnt seem like it:
No stock W.A.
: Sorry, this product is currently out of stock in all NSW/Vic. branches.
: Sorry, this product is currently out of stock in all Qld. branches.
120 bytes? What a bargain!
Bytes would be bargain but i think its only Bits lol
I know I'm going to regret this (because I saw a 256Gb for $224 on Crucial's site just yesterday… another 10% fall and it's in my "256Gb under $200 within 6 weeks" comment from less than a month ago).
But it's gotta be done. Patriot $119, In stock (Malvern)… and now ordered.
So mote it be, brethren.
OK, so I picked mine up from MSY Malvern, plus a kerjigger to enable me to clone the HDD of the very laptop on which I am now typing this.
Cloning took an hour, then replacing the HDD with the SSD took five minutes.
The change is nothing short of STAGGERING - from >2min to boot Win7, to under 15sec (and that includes typing the login password).
Word opens in a second. Imagine that - MicroSludge bloatware opening fast? Hasn't happened since 1988, when WordPerfect and Lotus123 didn't even have WYSIWYG and Windows came on 30 3.5" floppies and there was no way around 8.3 filenames.
Ahhh the old days…
TL;DR: first impressions are impressive, in a good way. I now await a sub-$200 256Gb for my harder-core Ubuntu notebook - it wil come. Now… where's my wine?

$9999.00 is not a bargain… many other places have it cheaper…
