This was on the frontpage of Slickdeals a couple of days ago.

I couldn't find any online reviews other than a couple of customer reviews. There are some specs on Newegg but nothing to back that up and even more worringly the PNY website does not include read/write numbers at all (although they have them for the xlr8).

It's cheap if you go through the Total Defense rebate hoops, 68 plus tax (pre-rebate) and shipping makes it about 85 total. Not bad for 240gb but is it worth the hassle and doubt?
