Very happy indeed! I'm thinking I'll buy a ~2TB hard drive for network storage, but other than that I'm not really interested in HDDs anymore to be honest.When it hits that ill be a very happy bunny

Seen the pre order prices of £184 for the 120GB and £411 for the 240GB elsewhere, seems decent enough.
The UK always gets ripped off. May be cheaper to just import one of these from the US. Shipping shouldn't be a problem considering size and weight.
We've got the same thing in Sweden. The exchange rate is $1 for ~6 SEK, but all products end up being one for ten instead. That's 25% VAT and additional transit for ya.i was just about to make the same post, we always get shafted... it seems they are pretty much just chaning the $ sign to a £ sign. ********
Right.. lets clear some things up here as there seems to be a little confusion...
If you click on the Corsair product page you can see clear they are going with 85k “sequential” IOPs and not with the “random” IOPs as used by OCZ.
OCZ Agility3 sequential IOPs are the same or even higher depending on how they are tested leaving the Corsair as the inferior unit closer in speed to that on the Solid 3.
Bottom line here is the Force3 is nothing more than a slower Agility3 (more like the Solid 3) and slower than the Vertex3.
The OCZ Agility3 matches and betters every spec of the Force3. They are the same (in essence) product as the Solid 3/Agility 3.
Yeah, most places have them up for sale already. I found a decent deal for the 120gb one with quidco also for around £166 so could not help but pull the trigger on it. Should be with me in a week

Where did you get your deal from please?
Just pre-ordered my 120gb one, I'm excited as it will be my first SSD
Anyone noticed these, that have seemed to pop up on corsairs site - http://www.corsair.com/solid-state-drives/force-series-gt.html
