    Does anyone know where/how to acquire either of the devices listed here to enable 5.1 via SPDIF outside of the US (specifically somewhere that ships to the UK):

    Dell seems to have gone out of their way to prevent non-US customers from acquiring this piece of kit - nothing on their UK/European websites, ebay and amazon sellers refuse to ship outside of the US. At a loss as to why its so difficult to acquire.

    Thanks in advance.
