I got one from the states off ebay.  Brand new - cost me about =A370 -= but
I had the luxury of someone who accepted delivery for me while on
holiday in
the states and brought the whole package over hand luggage for me. &nb= sp;  It
comes in a huge box when its really barely bigger than a car radio.

Stu,

The DDAR is the same as the "Rio Receiver", so if you see _either= _
advertised, then you're getting the same product. The only difference is in the cosmetics - the DDAR is black, the Rio silvery-thing.

I'm not aware that ANY have been sold in the UK. Certainly, several
companies have ADVERTISED them, but always "had stock problems."<= BR>
My advice would be to search the American sites, and find one that'll
ship to the UK. By the time you've paid shipping, insurance, import duty (2%) and VAT (17.5%) then realistically you'll end up changing the
dollar sign for a pound one, and then adding a bit.

I bought 5 when Tiger ran them for $99 each. By the time I got them
landed, they worked out about =A3102 each. That was taking into account
the savings in shipping for order 5 en bloc.

If I were importing now, I would expect to pay up to =A3150 per unit.
Certainly, that's what I paid for the first, when Graham did his
original bulk buy...

The BEST way to get hold of some would be to "phone a friend" in = the
States, get the friend to buy them, and then ship to you. This, however, needs to be a GOOD friend ;-)

Hi All

Ive been reading/drooling about the DDAR's recently as ive just put in a server to manage the ha in the house.  My setup for sending mp3 to the=
hifi is not very good at the moment so id love to get hold of one of
these Dell products.

Fraid I came in to this a bit late so will I be able to get one of these now.  Are they still not availble in the uk and if not is there a
similar product (with similar price) that will do the same thing.

At the moment I have the mp3 files sitting on the server with a pc in
the lounge and I manually play the mp3's using musicmatch.  It's a bit=
of a pain though to start up the pc when all I want is to play a few
tracks.

Anybody help?

Thanks

Stu Worrall
