    16gb model to be £159 according to the bbc:
    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-19509626

    Pretty good value at that price, early impressions seems to suggest it feels quite well made too.

    Edit: Correction, my eyes deceived me, only the 7" one is that price. 8.9" one seems to be US only at the moment

    Annoying that only the 7" version appears to be getting released here.
