it's $200 for the 80 gig version.

if anyone wants to try it, let us know how it is

I assume that the areal density would be lower on the 80gb drive v. the 100gb drive?

I found one review here:

sweet - anyone care to do some real-world end-user performance testing for us?

check this thread for some 'real-world' results, but keep in mind that the 7200.1 is only an 80gb drive so it's not a fair comparison:
