I am tempted to buy one and try and smuggle it home. At $399 + 7% sales tax, that still makes it 227 quid. The trouble is though, all the extras add up. You need at least 512m of RAM, and with built in wireless and superdrive it comes out to $805 including tax. Although the British version with the same specs comes out to 549 quid, which works out at over $1031 (Business owners get the VAT back)

Tempting... Even saying they'll deliver it by the 22nd, so before I get home.
