I believe shipping internationally is $45 (a flat fee) for Astak, plus custom fees and taxes of your country. (Last time I checked).
The cost of owning a plus is about $244+taxes/fees, but it comes with a protective case and replaceable battery (I'll order another battery with the plus if I decide to buy the plus).
After reading all the pros and cons here and the rest of mobilread forum, I might consider buying a Plus around Aug. 15th. Yeah! I change my mind when there's reason for it. Maybe EZ-Plus will be my first e-ink reading device after all. (I was considering Astak's EZ-Plus and ASUS' DR-950 and other competitive devices, but DR-950 is a vaporware.) Well, I'll just wait a few days and see.......
