In some mail order price lists I found the DORS to be replaced by a DCAS of same capacity and speed. The DCAS seems to be a little more expensive than the DORS (some 10%), though. (The DORS is available for <560DM (US$300) from multiple sources, the DCAS for 639DM or US$340 from a few. I didn't try to actually order one, the last few weeks, though ...) Is the 2GB Atlas II really that expensive ? I've seen it for 1075DM (which translates into US$570 if you substract the local VAT of 15%) and the 4GB version is 1579DM or US$840 ... Regards, STefan
