1. It is possible to get shipped to a US address that isn't your billing address (we did that) BUT, our billing address is a Canadian address, and enTourage does ship to Canada. So, the shipping shouldn't be a problem as long as enTourage will accept a European *billing* address. I don't see why they wouldn't, because we travel internationally and use the same cards everywhere, but I obviously don't know whether they have some kind of limitation in their system.

2. Given that some have mentioned having trouble registering but are still using their devices in the meantime, my guess is the device would work unregistered. But, again, check with enTourage to make sure that registering isn't necessary for support, updates or other reasons.

3. Do you mean permanently disable wifi? I wouldn't know about that, but there is a physical switch for turning the wifi off and on. Is it enough to have the switch in the off position, or do you mean that any device with the ability to transmit (when said function is turned on) is not allowed?
