Lacie 100gb 5400RPM P2 Mobile Firewire and USB

I think this is a new model from LaCie. Has anyone tried it already? I just placed an order wtih Small Dog but it is back-ordered as of today. It is bus-powered external HD (without an AC adaptor). I cannot wait till it will get shipped.

Unless you really treasure the pocket sized portability, you'd be better off with a mains-powered Porsche 7200 RPM drive.

Sounds nice, let us know what you think once you get it.

I already have LaCie's triple interface 160 GB and 250 GB external hard drive. They are very reliable and very sturdy looking with their metal enclosure. But, I would like to keep Photoshop/Illustrator/InDesign/Clip Arts files with me when I take my 12" PB; so, this new portable model from LaCie seems a very good match. Every quarter or so, there is a new and more compact hard drive emerges in the market and I hope this trend continues.
