Hi Peter,
I don't know whether you're in New South Wales/Victoria/Tasmania or 
maybe the Australian Capital Territory, from looking at your GMT+1100 
origination time, but I'm resident in Tweed Heads South,NSW right next 
to the state border with Queensland, and I bought mine two days back 
from "The Computer Market" Shop1, 99 Ashmore Road, BUNDALL, Qld. 4217 - 
phone is (07)55 317 777.  the salesman was Mark Anthony, [just think of 
Cleopatra] and their email is goldcoastATthecomputermarketDOTcom - 
change the obvious!

Very pleased with it!

Mike
