    I saw this deal 2 nights ago and ordered it. Newegg already has it at my front door today. I don't understand how they can ship stuff out so quickly. A lot of companies should study their business model. Anyways, I am set to max my laptop out at 4GB of ram! :D

    I never used Adata ram, hope it is a good company.

    I went to their website and it looks like the ram is guaranteed for life. Can anyone confirm? Their website is a little cryptic.

    I have always needed some "laprop" RAM. :p BTW the price went up to $60, still not a bad deal. I got a 2GB stick from Dell using a coupon for $22 shipped and if I end up getting the $15 rebate it will only cost me $7 for a 2GB stick of DDR2-667!

    Can't say anything about the quality of A-DATA's RAM, but...

    I have a 2GB SD card from A-DATA that I used lightly for about 4 months. It suddenly became corrupted, I lost all of my files, and now it is toast. I can't even format the little sucker.

    I do have to say, they've been helpful with my requests to replace it under the warranty. Still in the process, but I've got a good feeling they'll honor it.

    Wow. The $60 mark. The prices crashed in the fall from $200-300 and they've plateaued at around $70/80.
