Drats! twice too slow.

Well, let me know if one does become available please.

Something tells me it's too late.

Anyway, let me know if one becomes available.

Thanks.

There are no more Readers.

Three have already been shipped, and the fourth hasn't only because Paypal decided to be difficult on this one transaction.

German customs officials really seem to like my reader. They have been holding on to it for the last three days.
Maybe they're just baffled by its ground-breaking new functionality and want to make extra sure they choose the correct import duty category. In order to do this they need to run extensive tests, obviously ;-)

Oh well, I have been yearning for an electronic book reader for so long that a few more days will not make much of a difference. If only the reader arrives in time for me to claim the Connect store credit.

I picked up my reader from the local customs office before work today. It had been processed by customs for a whole week but I guess there is no point in arguing with them (did not keep me from trying, though).

In the end I did not have to pay any import duty, only 19 percent import tax.

So thank you very much for offering these readers here on mobileread, Nate!

Cheers,
