USR 8054 w/ PC card why so cheap?

Anyone know why US Robotics are selling these units for $88.99 (with mail-in rebate) in Canada?

Is this a marketing ploy? Why are they trying to flood the market?

I can understand it if this was a 802.11b but this is an 11g

I bought one anyway but I hope theres nothing wrong with it. but so far everything is working fine.

Could you supply a link so us uninformed have some idea what this is? I have no idea what a USR 8054 is (no flame intended)

What is a normal price?

$129 USD according to their website. Mind you it is only the router the pc card is not included.

Just do a google if you want more comparison. I just can't find any write up why so cheap. If you find it please post.

This is where I bought mine in Canada. I can't attached the pic so here's the link.
BTW Futureshop is the same as Best Buy in the US.
