Dusty Chalk Posted June 30, 2010 Author Report Posted June 30, 2010 ^ Am I missing something? Why is this a good deal?
jinp6301 Posted June 30, 2010 Report Posted June 30, 2010 Uhh, its portable (no power supply needed), and its 1tb and its $100. Usually the price is around 130-150. Also, amazon says that theres a 3 year warranty. Not a great deal, but a good deal Also, it seems the hd in this can be put into your laptop, which is what I'm planning to do.
Dusty Chalk Posted June 30, 2010 Author Report Posted June 30, 2010 Uhh, its portable (no power supply needed)...Ah, that was the part I was missing.

manaox2 Posted June 30, 2010 Report Posted June 30, 2010 15% off of HDTracks orders until 7/31 with code G2010. Don't know if its account specific for gold loyalty customers only, but it is probably only one use per account. Seems like they are getting a lot of new artists.

LarsMarkelson Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 Newegg.com - Open Box: SAMSUNG Spinpoint F3 HD103SJ 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive Samsung Spinpoint F3 1Tb for $46.99, it's an open box deal but FWIR the warranty still applies. Probably won't last long, these are really great hard drives, my personal favorite storage drives -- fast, reliable, and quiet.
Dusty Chalk Posted July 1, 2010 Author Report Posted July 1, 2010 They appear to be out already. "Wishlist", etc.
LarsMarkelson Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 Yep didn't last long, me picking up three probably didn't help much. Not a deal but Woot just announced they've been acquired by Amazon: Woot : Amazon, Woot, and You: But Mostly Woot
jinp6301 Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 ScoobyDeal - a Deal @ a Time (SM) Those usb battery packs (same but rebranded as the ones that were on woot before) are $7 + 5 shipping. Got 2 for ~20. Also woot has the kindle today for $150
blessingx Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 Amazon buys Woot and immediately puts the Kindle on sale. $149. [url=http://woot.com/]Woot
HeadphoneAddict Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 ScoobyDeal - a Deal @ a Time (SM) Those usb battery packs (same but rebranded as the ones that were on woot before) are $7 + 5 shipping. Got 2 for ~20. Also woot has the kindle today for $150 What I like about that battery pack (from the last time) is that it holds it's charge for a long time. So when you go to use it you don't find it to be totally dead like some others that I've tried. Nice deal on the Kindle, and if I didn't have the iPad, iPhone and Kindle app for Mac I'd seriously consider one. But even the Nook hardly gets used now.
Sherwood Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 My nook is still in very heavy rotation over here. I prefer reading on it to reading on anything else.
HeadphoneAddict Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 My nook is still in very heavy rotation over here. I prefer reading on it to reading on anything else. I used the nook a lot until I got the iPad. Switched to iBooks and Kindle apps on iPad then, and now back to B&N iPad app as well (since it was updated). I only occasionally use the nook when I need something lighter to carry around the house. Once they properly sync page bookmarks between nook and iPad app I'll maybe use it more.
Sherwood Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 I use it simply because I like the eInk. It's easy on the eyes for hours of reading, which is usually where I find myself. I can't imagine plowing through Cryptonomicon on a backlit screen. Aside from that, the iPad reader apps are all brilliant, and I think eInk as a technology will likely be somewhat marginalized by excellent devices like the iPad.
grawk Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 I already spend hours reading a much worse screen than the ipad every day...
n_maher Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 That Kindle deal is really tempting but I find myself transitioning more to audiobooks than ebooks.
Salt Peanuts Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 That Kindle deal is really tempting but I find myself transitioning more to audiobooks than ebooks. Same here. Between being an Audible member and the local library system (they've got decent audiobook selections), I rarely actually read for pleasure now.
swt61 Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 My issue tends to be with the cost of the ebook. Why on earth should an ebook cost substantially more than an actual paper and ink copy?
blessingx Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 After getting the iPad I immediately bought a few ebooks and have yet to complete one. Hell, I've yet to finish a sampler. Between the eye strain and the draw to check RSS feeds, etc. this is the one area the iPad hasn't been a complete success for me. Well, the other areas successes might be the problem. Although I wish the Kindle had native ePub support like the Nook, converting non-DRM files seems simple enough (and DRM ones I could care less about format). Every title I've checked has Kindle editions cheaper than B&N, iBooks, and Borders ebooks and all, including Amazons, paperbacks. I'm sure there are exceptions, but I haven't come across one in the last couple weeks (admittedly have only looked up a dozen titles). Audiobooks to me is all about commutes. Increase or decrease that and their use adjusts accordingly. I listen to about a tenth I did five years ago. Well, that and podcasts have nudged them aside a bit - that damn This American Life app! Tack on the weight difference with the iPad and I hope this is going to be a solution. Fingers crossed. if not, at least it will be a way to share ebooks with others. Toss them the Kindle/iPad while reading the other.

Les_Garten Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 Have you ever tried to source electrons? They can't be created or destroyed, that's a problem! You have to round them up when you need them, then there's the problem of what do you do with them when you are done... It's a wonder they are as cheap as they are.
