A question to the Swedes ordering from clove: Did the package come with a suitable adapter for european plugs? I know they have different kinds of wall sockets in Britain and wanted to make sure I don't have to get a separate adapter.

Anyone who's ordered from eBay lately, and can recommend a reliable seller? The Swedish daily paper DN stated July as sales start in Sweden, and I don't feel like waiting any more.

Be aware that the keyboard on the German model is pretty close to scandinavian one, whereas the UK keyboard is not. You can of course switch layout, but the keys will be wrongly labelled.

German keyboards have a ü where å should be in Fin/Swe, and the z and y keys are swapped. Remapping ü to å is not that difficult, but haven't found a way tos swap z and y - yet. UK keyboards, can't recall all the diffences, but no å, ö or ä of course. There are also ther differences
I'm also in Sweden but I picked up my EEE in Taiwan (couldn't find one here). Pretty cheap, about 2200SEK. Shame I blew it up :(
The biggest difference for me is the brackets are on 8 and 9 on the Swe keyboard and 9 0 on the UK. Confuses the hell out of me as I switch keyboards a lot!

Honestly, if I were you, I'll wait for the 900 apparently due next month.

Don't think so. It's bigger, more expensive, and offers little bonus for my purposes.

hey, for shipping products outside US,Viaddress is the best . I have been using them since many years. Their rates are much lower thanBongous, Vpost, Borderlinx .
I have had purchased several items online and shipped them to India by viaddress service only and the most important thing is, items are always received in perfect conditions.
2 years ago i had to buy a necklace for my mom and the liked one wasn't available here. so i bought it from eBay and shipped them through viaddreess. Necklace was reached in 3 days. they are really fast, reliable and trustworthy.
i would say, for international customers, it is must to have them. here is the link.

Also they have live chat support, so if you need any assistance, they are always ready to answer your queries.
