I would suggest you get a friend in either the US or the UK to order it for you and send it via book rate or soemthing. I was not aware that the US was now given upgrade rights. These magazines used to offer the upgrades to the UK only. This is interesting. Either CuriousLabs got too many complaints, or they finally figured out that they were losing sales by not offering it to the US. Maybe they'll extend this offer to other countries in the future.
