ooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

3 exclamation's!!!

exkewese me for not knowing that mirror is actually a major brand name!!!

I went to Dixons site and tried a search for 'writer' and the Ricoh was the only DVD burner that showed up!!!

reading the post again I thought it may imply that it was the Mirror newspaper that the advert was in and the Ricoh was the one on special!!!

as you can see in my next post I said PC world were also selling it after I eventually found it at PC World!!!

p.s. I'd get the A05 for £180 anyway cos the mirror is only 1X for DVD-R (if I didn't already have the A04, I know its 2X for DVD-RAM)!!!

p.p.s. plus the deal ended yesterday so why flog a dead horse?

p.p.p.s. all in fun

The Sony RCU500A (?) is better although a bit more money. Around £250 but writes to DVD-R and DVD+R (and RW) at 4x speed.

Are in short supply though.
