- There are a lot of US products without german or European distributors
- or not functioning in PAL (eg Toaster) and I wouldn't call it all
- vapour just because the manufacturer isn't my neighbour...
-
- Maybe we should call you vapour because you're not available in europe? :-)
- (Sorry to get personal, but I couldn't resist).
-
- I can order US-products without problems:
- order by fax
- pay with credit-card
- no problem... but maybe if sth gets defective and you need service.
- I can't imagine it much more difficult the other way round, you're just
- required to be willing to!!

- Ciao, Klaus.
