    As tittle. So far I can only find GX series in bid.yahoo.com.tw making me wonder if it is even available in Taiwan. Is my only option to buy from the states and pay some USD250 shipping? :eek:

    That would be hilarious outrageous. It's made there by Taiwanese company, but it's not available there? :)

    Well, sorry then. Let me change that to outrageous.

    I really thought Taiwan is on tech like japan - they have everything and more.
