Yes, indeed. As an expat Yank, I sometimes do miss the ready availablity of "stuff" - and the reasonable prices. Whilst on hols in the States, I picked up a Toshiba netbook for US$325. This same netbook would run me AUD$800 - $900 here, and that's if I can find it.
Oh, they'll say something about supply and demand - rah-rah-rah. Well, they are going to find themselves up against some pretty mean competition when people realise they would still win buying stuff overseas even with the horrendous shipping prices.
Reckon they need to smarten up or lose business.
