Well, pricing is in for Australia. Not quite as bad as Harry predicted but close enough.

32GB $1249
128GB $1499
128GB wifi + cellular $1699.

Thats me out. Cannot find any justification to pay those sorts of prices. Pencil is $165 and keyboard case is $269. Ludicrous. Not that I don't want it. I just don't have the kind of cash flow that allows it. I have a friend in Sydney who has probably already pre-ordered. His income is something like 6x mine so he can do it. I'm envious of people who can go through life buying what they want when they want with absolutely no worries about whether it will impinge on their capacity to pay bills and feed themselves. Sighhh.
