jr.com and the Hitachi 4gb microdrive
Tried to post this on the discounts area,but no access.

Anyways, www.jr.com has the 4gb hitachi microdrive for $169, and also listed separately with a $50 rebate which also brings the price to $169. Weird stuff, they have different model numbers.
The rebate looks universal and is good till the end of January. The rebate lists a model which does not match the already $168 priced model. Searching the web, www.compuplus.com has the model number which matches the rebate - $169 minus $50 rebate = $119 (plus shipping).

It will be interesting to see if you buy from compuplus if you can also get the rebate. In the past month or so on their site, they said that the microdrive they had was not eligible for the rebate. I called compuplus and they said if the rebate was valid, they would show that the microdrive had a rebate.

I contacted Hitachi and here is their response regarding the rebate:

The rebate is actually through Pexagon Technologies, not us. Pexagon is a
large distribution which sells drives to various resellers. The rebate is
only good through those resellers. Compuplus's website does not appear to
offer a coupon with it. Therefore, I would have to say that the rebate does
not apply to that drive.

However, the price on Compuplus's website (at this moment) is $168.95. The
price through JR's website is 169.88 after rebate. It is possible that
compuplus's price already reflects the rebate. For more information, I
would recommend contacting Compuplus.

Thank you for contacting Hitachi GST.
