Is possible to register the device from a non-US i.p.-address (I seem to remember somebody doing this from Mexico?)?
I have just about made my mind up to buy one, but I am checking out a Sony 600 over the next week (which I suppose is technically in a different league altogether - I wouldn't consider the Edge an e-reader, more of a netbook with better reading functions. Really, I think I want 2 'readers': 1 for portability/quick&dirty mark-up and 1 for proper marking up/as a workhorse. Now where is that lottery ticket...  ).
thanks in advance!

I paid for mine with my credit card that has a FPO (overseas military) address, which they won't ship to, so you might be able to order with an overseas address. I had it sent to a friend and then she had it sent out to me. I'm actually selling mine on ebay though because it doesn't really suit my needs. The "netbook" side is more than what I need. I can just use my ipod touch for stuff like that. I like the size of the ereader side, but I would rather have a lighter and more portable device, so I'll stick with my libre and ipod for ebook reading until the asus device comes out (at least that's what I have my eye on now).
