I just picked up a 430EX to go with my 400d. Am I correct that I would need 2 PocketWizards in order to use the flash off-camera? If so I think I'm better off with the Canon trigger when I'm ready to go off camera. If I only need 1 PocketWizard, I'm jumping all over this deal.

You'll need one for the camera and one for each flash.

This is a good deal, almost as good as the student discount at B&H (external link)

Nice! Considering I paid $180 for my four plus shipping that would have saved me a good $80+.

Thanks, that's what I thought. Considering how little indoor/flash shooting I do right now, I'm going to wait on purchasing these.

Amazon must be laughing from above. I just got done mowing the lawn and they are showing me a POS electric mower on the first link, back up to $188 on the second.
