<blockquote> well.. i think that was already answered somewhere in
the thread in<br>
other words, but here my short version:<br>
<br>
afaik there will be 2 possibilities:<br>
<br>
- order at the openmoko us based webshop.<br>
- pay in us$<br>
- pay the (to europe quite high but not unusual) higher shipping fee<br>
- if not in the us: pay the VAT/sales tax of the target country on<br>
recieving the package to the ups guy (usually in cash)<br>
- use a CC (currently JCB, VISA, MASTER. _no_ AMEX afaik)<br>
<br>
- order at a local distributor<br>
- pay the local currency<br>
- pay for shipping if you do not pick it up yourself<br>
- pay the regional tax/vat of your county directly with the device and<br>
shipping<br>
<br>
so the bottomline is: us customers as well as worldwide can very easily<br>
order directly at openmoko. but if you do not want to have the hassle of<br>
transatlantic shipping, different currencies etc or want local<br>
warranty, buy at a local distributor.<br>
<br>
i guess due to the shipping costs its cheaper and less hassle to order<br>
single devices directly at a distributor. also these could have<br>
different payment methods, but thats their decision.<br>
<br>
<br>
kind regards<br>

To resume, there are some dsitributors :<br>
<br>
France : Bearstech<br>
Germany : TRIsoft<br>
<br>
we don't already know conditions, and prices with Bearstech, but
TRIsoft seems to be arrested to 350€ incl VAT (plus fee's shipment)<br>
