This is just odd, normally you take the US price, half it add 17.5% for VAT and another £20 for the privilege of buying Apple in the UK.
This time they have added £70 for the UK factor
This might explain why the AppleTV isn't taking on in the UK?
Anyway I won't be buying one in the UK. _________________ MacMini Intel * 2x20" InteliMacs * 2xMBPs 13" * 1TB TC * 8GB iPhone * 16GB iPhone 3G * 30GB iPod Video * 2GB Nano (NetPlayers /Sounbridges /Win7 / 4TB NasLite / 4TB FreeNAS / 4 TB Thecus 4100+/ 4 TB DAS) |

Just buy a 40Gb model from the refurb section, add atvflash for a few pounds more, use an external usb drive and you have all the storage you need for less than the price of a 160Gb model. I have done this, any questions just ask.
