I've been angry about this whole US - EU pricing madness for a while now...
If a US-produced device were more expensive here than it is in the Us then that would be OK, but since all the devices are actually produced somewhere in Asia these days there is just no reason why the pricing should be so unfair.
Even if you take into account that you have to pay approx. 20% import-VAT in Germany (please don't get me started on the unfairness of that tax...) it would still mean that we could get our stuff for 20% less in € than it costs in $ because the € to $ ratio is around 40% at the moment...
But that's corporate policy for you, and if a european company does it to it's customers then I'd simply not buy from them.
