UK: Memory prices go crazy crazy crazee!

Has the world gone mad? Given recent events you might say yes, but I was referring specifically to the price of Mobile Memory Cards! There have been a stack of offers recently in the UK, even to the point where the high-street retailers are trying to get in on the action. However, their pricing is probably 12 months or so behind where the cost-down leaders are right now.
Case in point: Picstop.co.uk! I’ve mentioned them before in my posts, but I am not even sure ‘mega-deals’ covers this:
Deal one: 10GB’s worth of storage for £16.99! I remember when 128MB USB sticks were VERY expensive, and SD cards even more so. Not any more!
Deal two: 8GB MicroSDHC card for £12.99! This would be a card that works in the newer breed of devices that have (a) MicroSD card capability of over 4GB and (b) understand the MicroSDHC standard. Nonetheless, that’s a CRACKING deal!
