Dunno, but I doubt it.  I actually quoted the US retail price, but their US
sysop (and trade-in) price is still only US$249, and I presume that their
dealer price would be somewhere around that lower figure.  Not too much
movement in exchange rates lately, so I can't see them being any dearer.

Or perhaps I should say that there is no LEGITIMATE reason for it...

Regards, Bill
