You can actually get both in baggage, it's been done. Not delaring to customs, however, is technically smuggling and your liabilty to HM Customs & Excise does not end the moment you get to the other end of the green channel in the airport. It's simply not reasonable to compare pricing based on smuggling kit illegally into the country. One the issues with shipping in hand baggage is with ditching the packaging. If there is a warranty issue, you'll need to ship it back to the place of purchase and you no longer have a suitable box in which to do it. Nothing is as good as the original packaging. Glad you like my idea, a 30-day home trial need not just apply to one system. -- jaffacake ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jaffacake's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3206 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=45734 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
