Cheap Pocket PC

Amazon.co.uk appear to have some slight pricing problems with iPaq Pocket PCs at the moment:

Get an H1910 for £7.32 (normally around £300 or more)

Get an H5450 for £23.04 (normally around £450 or more)

Doubtless this error will soon be corrected, and we'll have to wait and see whether Amazon actually honour the orders, but about half my company have confirmation emails already ;-)

Update I: The site seems very sluggish at the moment...
Update II: Looks like they've finally got wise and shut up shop completely.
Update III: Stories at BBC News, The Register and Slashdot. Doesn't seem very likely that the orders will be honoured. For a humorous take, look here.
Update IV: Have had an email though from Amazon saying that they're cancelling the order. No great surprise, really.
