239 Euro (aka 165 British Pounds) for a new 40 GB Vaio Pocket...amazing

[thwi]

Well....I had a 20 gb Pocket which I bought for 329 Euro around x-mas. I gave it back...anyway.
Now you can find a new 40gb(!) model for 239 Euro (165 British Pounds) at ebay (it´s been sold through cyberport.de - a regular online shop in Germany; on their website the VGF-APL1 is sold for 219 Euro plus postage). Quite an attractive price - I don´t find ANY 40 gb player which even comes close to this price.

Although I am well aware of the pros and cons of this player I....well, I ordered one (directly through their shop). In the end I paid 227 Euro... and now I am again a Vaio Pocket user...

BTW: the above stated offer is only available for buyers in Germany - although I would try to give the guys at cyberport.de a call in case somebody wants the item to be sent outside of Germany.

Cheers,
Thomas

But cyberport.de's method to sell their Vaio's is kinda strange. On cyberport.de itself I had seen it for about 220¿ + ~5¿ postage (a NEW original packaged item!)
But in the eBay-auction they sell remnants or used VP's for 240¿?!
