Thanks for coming back with that offer, Brett, we've already missed you! ;=}

Anyhow, as you may have noticed from the other responses, there's some
international demand. What would it take to reconsider your stand on
international postage? If you send by sea, it's not soo terribly expensive
(but may take 6 weeks), if you send by air it's not soo terribly slow (but
cost more), so there's something for everyone.

Or Plan B - how about running a batch order that could be manually handed
over at the World Meeting in September in Paris (paging Frank or US list
members planning to attend)?
(Heh, the coolest thing would be to take a couple dozen complete kits and
offer them streetvendor-style in front of the Apple expo in Paris, just
before the Newton World Conference and tell the proud new owners to walk in
and show 'em off at the Apple stand... ;=} ).

Cheers,

DJV.
