I guess no one answers old posts, but if you are like me, and just now getting to this post here are the details of how I got one of these in the states...

It seems to be flat rate shipping, and it came out to $96.58 in all - I did go for the overnight post in hopes it'd help, but to no avail...

The only thing that wasn't good for me was waiting 5 days for paypal to clear...
After finally clearing the item arrived at my door in 12 days.
I was able to get a UK to US voltage converter from my local radio shack for around ten bucks.
there are a few different i-ups listed on the site . . fear not it's just listed to show that it works with more than one device, and regardless of which one you get you'll have the right connections in the box.

By the way I wrote to the site about 4 times total, and every time it took them no more then a day to get a response to me.
They were very informative, with personalized responses... I didn't get any "bot backs" as I call them...

Any questions are welcome

ps. I wonder... with the amount of instructables going around if someone wouldn't be able to make one of these at home for a huge cut in price.
