And this site doesn't mention how to pre-order from outside Germany (VAT, special taxes, options, adv kit, ...). This is a really bad sales channel, where you can get your hardware about 50% off if you order in US. I think we (Switzerland) will again get lost and have to pay high prices for such devices :-( -- Alexandre ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: freerunner - DONT buy it local
In the UK, getting a distribution channel though someone such as http://www.expansys.com/ would make a big difference to sales I think. ...but maybe when the consumer version is ready and not the upcoming developer version.

Re: freerunner - DONT buy it local
