    Deal is now dead!

    Previously:

    As in the title, Newegg AM shell shocker is the very fast 120 GB OCZ Vertex 2 for $169.99 after mail in rebate.

    Link is <strike>here</strike>. Even without the MIR, it's a pretty good deal!

    This is good for Monday, January 31st 2011!

    Edit - Apparently it's still available, although I don't know for how much longer. Revised link <strike>here</strike> *thanks to blasterbeam210*

    That is a good deal. Sigh. Too bad 120GB is too small for me.

    Awesome deal. Wow.

    Reaching that $1/GB... If only 256GB will do the same.
