Who is BB? And do you mean buy it over the web when I am back in the US, or
buy it from a US store. I wasn't aware it was available anywhere in the US.
Call me oblivious, I guess, I am not much of a technic head.
Shipping from here (in the UK where i am at the moment) for me is free
assuming it fits in my duffle. And if we assume I trade or give most of my
stuff away at the fest tomorrow I should have lots of room in my duffle... :-)
