<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><font size=3
face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Could you offer shipping
by the US Postal Service? Looking at their website, I see that for instance,
they have a service called 'Express Mail International' that would cost $28 for
a single phone, with a delivery time in 6 days to Sweden, and a service called
'Priority Mail International' which would cost $19 for delivery in 6-10 days.<br>
<br>
The same services would be $51 for a 10-pack with delivery in 6 days, or $35-40
for delivery in 6-10 days.<br>
<br>
I'm sure many customers would prefer saving, say $50 on the shipping of a
single phone, or $120 for a 10-pack even if delivery takes an extra week (even
if we're all anxious to get our phones).<br>
<br>
Geoff: I was asking about shipment to <st1:place w:st="on">Europe</st1:place>.
I think Steve mentioned shipping to <st1:City w:st="on">Freemont</st1:City>, <st1:State
w:st="on">CA</st1:State> because he was saying that all phones are shipped from
<st1:place w:st="on"><st1:country-region w:st="on">China</st1:country-region></st1:place>
to Freemont directly first, and then to wherever the customer is.<br>
