Default Sandisk Extreme III

With reference to the link from Dpreview.com on the Sandisk Extreme III

Sandisk Extreme III (Dpreview.com)

Seems like the price is dropping... suggested price for the Sandisk Extreme III 1GB is only US$139.99 (S$240)...

"SanDisk Extreme III CompactFlash cards will be sold in 1, 2 and 4GB capacities with suggested retail prices ranging from $139.99 to $559.99 (€135 to €540, excluding VAT). The SanDisk Extreme III SD card will be sold in a 1GB capacity at a suggested price of $139.99 (€139, excluding VAT). And Memory Stick PRO Extreme III cards, sized in 1 and 2GB capacities, will carry suggested price tags of $279.99 and $559.99 (€289 and €576, excluding VAT)."

Maybe if we wait for another month, we can get 1GB and 2GB CF card at a more attractive price...

buy what you need, at that precise moment is best... everytime we wait for offer, we know there will be better offer coming and hence, never buy...

NO, what I meant is that since Sandisk just announced this new products, the price of the rest of the product might be reducing in price soon.

So might worth a short wait...

Such news do have an impact on prices... Just my opinion...

And it will only go lower. As in most computer products, as newer models come out and the older models become obselete, prices for the older model will drop.
However, like the man say, buy if you have a need. If you wait say 1 year down the road, the 2g may even be selling for less than $50.
