I must say I am not happy about ordering from Borders (anywhere) due to their current financial woes and would much rather order from Kobo or an established retail shop.
Cazmar, there are many of us in NZ and Australia that have ordered a kobo touch via the US borders.com - and I have one right beside me shipped all the way from Indianapolis for $129USD and shipping $9USD (bargain).

I agree, I probably have zero after sale support from borders but as it is so cheap it is a risk I'm happy to take.
