    I missed the burner in the Aldi in Ballincollig ... I got stuck in traffic (some gobshíte on the back road) and by the time I arrived at 9:10 they were gone ... seemed to be a good few usb drives in peoples hands though ... saw someone with two of them

    /me Duh! . The Aldi yoke was more comparable to the Retail version given the software bundle . I got there late as well but there is a stack of inkjet refills and of photo glossy paper in Galway as I write.

    Whoever was lucky enough to get one - there's a firmware update here

    OK so,
    komplett (click twice) have them for €210 plus del, (the Pioneer 106, no software mentioned tho(?))

    itdirect have them for €251 (the Pioneer A06, no software mentioned tho(?))

    I came across a site that had them for €169 (the Pioneer 106 w/o software). Will try to backtrack to find out who if anyone wants to know.

    Feck, had I realised how good value they were I woulda gotten up an hour earlier and also not chanced the first bus which took waay longer to get in :'( What time did ppl start queuing?

    It is what it's.

    I certainly do not work for aldi!

    A friend went in in the morning for me, got towards the top of the queue. I had to be at work myself.

    I won't actually get my hands on the thing until sunday night.

    Dont get so stuck on the A06. The NEC 1100 (DVD+R only) and 1300 (DVD+-R)
    are just as good if not better/faster at reading and much cheaper.
    Available here for 126 euros (+ about 10 for delivery)

    Iomega do a rebadged NEC1300 even cheaper. And this is the one Dell
    give with their PC's.

    “Roll it back”
