If ordering from the US (or anywhere really), would it be possible to have the package marked as a gift to evade taxes and such? Norwegian taxes are high, so we'll probably pay like half a phone extra >_<

Well, if you consider that you've to pay the shipping costs from Usa or Asia in 10 or more people, instead that as an alone buyer I think that you
gain really more than 30$-8€ ;)

Well, that is the key question now for us in the EU - I believe that
FIC has said that they will have a distribution center in the EU,
which should make the shipping much less expensive. The very high
shipping cost in relation to the price of the phone I think was a
problem with the GTA01...

I'm very much looking forward to hearing about how FIC will solve the
EU distribution, and how much the shipping will be in Europe on top of
the $399 + VAT price, which I think is a very good price. I think that
info would be in the next update from FIC.

Yes, you are right, i was thinking that buying a 10pack phone is always cheaper than buying a single phone due to the shipping costs. I'd like to know the eu price and if it's convenient to buy the phone in eu, else there are some services that you can subscribe for 10$ which give you an us address so you buy the phone and send them there, after that you pay the shiping cost from there to your nation, this can let you to not pay VAT, don't know how much it's legal but i'd like to get more info on this services because they can be very useful. Everything obviously is to see how much the eu phone costs due to the VAT and other taxes. So i have to get more info about this service but they exist so i think it should be a good deal to use them if in eu the phone will cost too much.

Cya!
