 Maybe by the time I get a chance to buy one they will have enough
 processor power, ram and disk space to replace my laptop.
 Every time I even look to buy it I see the sold out.

Unfortunately that means people who live in a place that does not have
a distributor - like Brazil - are SOL for like, forever, appearently.
Sigh. I guess I should unsubscribe from the list for 6 months and then
check back. My optimism tells me to wait a bit still, but its not
eternal.

 i believe the strategy is to order from a local distributor

 eg Koolu for north america


The problem with ordering from Koolu is that there may be taxes or duty at
the border that you wouldn't know about until the order is placed. I want to
order mine but I'm afraid they'd charge a premium at the border to let it
through.

The guy running the New York sales group stated the following in regard to
out ten pack.

The analyst for this section (8517.12.00) [1] at US Customs confirms there
is no duty on cell phone imports from Canada and most everywhere else. Some
'processing charge' may be asessed by the USPS but it will not be more than
a few dollars.

[1] http://www.faqs.org/rulings/tariffs/85171200.html

I'm no expert, but it should be free from tariffs.

Did you check the distributor section of our website? I think Koolu has 
a USA address as well now.

Their sales team stated it was still shipping from Canada when I wrote them
recently. After the reply from Charles though I am just going to place my
order Friday as I had originally planned to and not worry about it.
