Hi,
when you translate the German text and things said on the 1000steine-forum,
there are some inconsistancies (pfewww what a word) aswell:
The catalog states not before early 2005, but someone gives a chance to
pre-order for 39,99 instead of 49,99 euros. Delivery from Oktober 2004.
That's a bit strange.......
But, when it is true...WOW.
