And as you have stated, you are "price-insensitive." The risk of losing money on a faulty device shipped from abroad may not bother your budget, but that is not the case for most users.
Shipping from abroad is prohibitive for most people and effectively bars the product for them. I have seen a number of comments to this effect on these forums made by users in America.
So no. The average American user has great difficulty accessing the Onyx device. If you are in Europe, the problem is greatly lessened. Once again, we see a lack of innovation in the American market.

I actually bought my Onyx T68 from Amazon. Free 2 day shipping with Prime. The T68 is no longer available, but the M96 is.
