They're available cheaper with local helpdesk support and warranty from a Australian supplier. They come with an Australian USB charger included (value A$20).

The ECO Reader is the same as an Ezy Reader, but with Aust support and firmware. The HanLin V5 is the same as a Pocket Pro.

Some folks want the colors, and AFAIK Astak is the only one offering anything but Black or White.

Unfortunately, if he already has the reader, then he ordered a black/white one, in which he would not have needed Astak for the coloured units...

Maybe we have done some research! I'd check your foreign currency calculations again before you claim to be cheaper.. AUD 359 does not equal USD 199.

Mine shipped cost AUD 243.

But all the best with your business.

So your shipping costs were about $8US? I've sent an email to Astak requesting a price on shipping to here in Australia as the $199US price is damn hard to beat. Then again my fear of buying overseas might make me pay the price locally.

Shipping to Australia is 40$ not 8$. Check this post. It still works out to be cheaper though.
