Hey guys why did you jump on Halk like that?
I think he meants something else entirely.

If we order Sony Reader from the USA now, then we pay 200 quid - including shipping and tax, however, excluding any warranty at all.

If they sell it here for 200 quid, we get for the same money a usual warranty we would get in the UK for any other eletronical device.

I don't think he meant that the value of the warranty we get is equal 50 quid. He meant that for the the extra 50 quid that we pay over the reader's price in the USA, we are going to have the proper consumer rights we are missing right now if we are buying the reader from the USA.

So, if they sell the reader over here then for the same price we used to pay for the reader we will get not just the reader but also the warranty which is quite nice. And as someone said I am glad it is 200 quid not 250/300 as I expected it would be.
