I picked up one at Fry's a couple of weeks ago, along with a Fujitsu 40GB notebook (2.5") drive. It seems to work fine, but I've only used it one weekend. I was a bit disappointed at the life of the rechargable batteries in it, but I have a power inverter installed in the truck, so it's not that much of an issue. It lasted almost all day, and transferred over 200 RAW shots from the CF cards to the hard drive before the batteries were dead. TTYL, DougF KG4LMZ
