    I would like more information where I can buy this locally..
    It's good to say it's available for unlimited quantities - doesn't state how much import duties are etc.

    After waiting 8 weeks for mine, I actually don't know what to do with it now (received it last week some time).

    I opened it, but waiting on some other stuff I've ordered as well

    I also received mine last week but I forgot that I was going to get an SD card locally so mine is also sitting around doing nothing.

    I just hope this means that the "very many weeks to dispatch" also shrinks...
