That's actually pretty good.

I was imagining them charging the same price as the Eee for a module (or at least something that would make it seem a bit pointless. But £75 for a massive storage boost is great!

so is there any way i can stick that in a PCI-e slot?

Would be perfect for my MediaPortal client

Funk, Super Talent says the PCI interface is customised to work with the Eee PC 701, 702, 900, 901, 903, 905 and 1000.

Don't think it'll plug into any old PCI-e slot, unfortunately. :(

damn :(

there are mini pcie -> pcie 1x adapters around.. but they are mucho expensive

edit: found a cheaper one, still $100 though

$100 is taking the piss about isn't it?

yes way too much to make it viable, its not even a half height card or anything.. its just niche overpriced tat
