THERE IS NO REBATE FORM TO BE FOUND

If it's an "in-store only" rebate, the rebate form will [usually] only be available "in-store"....

It's very useful for students who transport files back and forth from class to home. Otherwise, yah your right...

Yeah, but this 750 MB drive is even more limited. Granted, if you're using 100 MB disks and the 750 MB drive is backwards compatible, you should be fine. However, that kind of defeats the purpose of the 750 MB drive.

I remember reading through the circulars a few weeks back and recall seeing a free 100 MB Zip drive with the purchase of some Zip disks. Personally, I'd go for one of the USB storage pens if I had to cart files around campus.

the post is confusing and all the negative remarks are bull$hit. Just because you might not have a use for this means nothing to the rest of the world.

The deal is you go to the B&M and the item rings up at $129 and then prints out the $50 rebate form. BB also has a 10% off coupon in various magazines as well.

The appliance fits in your shirt pocket and is reliable. I take images to my photo lab on these disks and all the universities and colleges use them. Lot of people use them and have them built into their computers; others use them on their laptops. 750 mb is a lot of pages of stuff, not everyone wants to carry around a much larger device when they only need to have 100,000 pages of data on the disk.

Ecology wise it makes more sense that a use it and throw it away mentality.
