USA vs UK

Do you think its worth getting the Axim from the USA or the UK ?

My cousin lives in SC and is willing to buy it for me then ship it over (not sure what the shipping cost's will be)

Was wondering what will happen if I have a claim on the warranty ?

The US = $314 (£197)
The Uk = $446 (£278)

Any help gladly excepted

The warranty won't be valid as it belongs to the purchaser. Secondly how will you charge it? You'll still need to buy a UK mains connector.

For the sake of a week or two wait, I'd get it from the UK. By the looks of a couple of people on this board, it's already started shipping. You've also got the risk that customs will open it and whoop you for VAT, there's your cost advantage gone.

Good luck with whichever method you choose.

I just on another thread on this board that the Axim power supply is good for the UK and US together but you still need another lead of some sort.
