Default Toshiba 2 gig PCMCIA hard drive for...$12.95!?

http://www.gtwaccessories.com/cgi-bin/pagegen/gtwaccessories/www/page.html?mode=itempage&file=/page/itempagev4/itempage.spl&prodID=1881017&catID=316441

Coming straight from the "seems too good to be true" department, Gateway is selling the 2 gig Toshiba PCMCIA hard drives for $112.95, and they're offering a $100 rebate. I've read all the fine print on the rebate, and it looks completely legit. Amazing! If you're looking for some cheap storage for your laptop or Pocket PC with a PCMCIA slot, it doesn't get much better than this. Thanks to ppcsolo for pointing this out to us! Please note that although the rebate is good in Canada and the US, Gateway doesn't ship to Canada.

Unbelievable. For that small a sum, it almost doesn't matter whether you need it or not! Makes me wish I had a PDA with a card slot instead of just a CF. Oh well!
And by the way, even though the little pop-up says the free shipping offer expired on July 31, I tried it and it still works. Woohoo! :D

Default Same one as Tigerdirect?

Does anyone know if this is the same one being sold at Tigerdirect? It's a great deal! Thanks for the post!

Default Toshiba 2GB Driv

What a sweetheart of a deal. TOO BAD THAT IT IS ONLY AVAILABLE IN THE USA. Sure would be nice for a change if some of these deals were available in Canada, especially since the rebate offer is good for both countries.

I can't wait for a gateway store to open tomorrwo moring to see if I can convince them to sell it for that price and still get the rebate.
It is a shame because my tigerdirect order will be in this week...

Ordered one but not sure whether it will ship in time to get the rebate (site says in stock and will ship in 4 to 5 days; needs to ship by August 15 from what I can tell to get the rebate). Can't complain at that price regardless, though.

After I ordered the Kingston drive from TigerDirect too, this shows up.

TechBargins lists the item as being on backorder. http://www.techbargains.com/
