The British pound is worth about USD 1.90, so that would be around 123 dollars. However, electronic goods tend to be more expensive this side of the pond, in part because the UK price includes tax: I'd expect that a product costing £65 in the UK would sell for $100 or so in the US. (The iPod shuffle 1GB is £69 in the UK, $99 in the US). Miche.
