Wow, that is a really low price on a VP8. Also, I think they got the kinks worked out with their pen and digitizer.
Never mind, this is the crippled model with only 1GB of RAM and no digitizer. I guess that explains the price.

In addition to that G.Skill memory, there’s also the Crucial Ballistix one-module as well:

Helpful if limited in slot numbers or just looking for more memory.
Looks like memory prices have finally stabilised again.
