Just like the subject line says:

As of this writing they have 241 in stock. I'm amazed how cheap flash memory has become...go grab one!

Shouldnt the title be "19.99 after rebates"?
anyway, I'd definitley grab this, but I was lucky enough to have a friend with an extra 1GB CF card.. and to think I spent $57.00 on a 256 card at the end of last year 8O :razz:

Thanks, Jason for the tip. We'll see what happens with my old HP PhotoSmart C20.

Ok, explain this rebate system you have in the US. What is the point of it? A discount is a discount and shouldn't it be taken away from the price when you actually buy the product?
Who gains by having customers send in little coupons - doesn't all the extra work of processing them cost money too?

A lots of folks are attracted by the rebate, but fail to claim, so it works out cheaper for the manufacturers.

So, the store where you made the purchase doesn't really have anything to do with this rebate business - it is the manufacturer?
