In my opinion you can get a Toaster/Flyer combo for less than that if you are patient and shop carefully. I know how you feel, I waited YEARS until they came down before I bought mine. I would suggest getting a T/F pair that were working together already instead of buying them individually. The Par-TBCIV combo is also neat to have. I have had pretty good luck with mine by using drives in the 8-10 gig range.
