<P>Good onyer Driline,</P> <P>I just bought an NCE Power Cab too, but:</P> <OL> <LI>I was no where near as analytical as you were, and</LI> <LI>I paid the equivalent of US$183 (excluding tax).</LI></OL> <P>On #1, I envy your thoroughness. Apart from that Digitrax does not seem to be very active in our market, so NCE is out in front.</P> <P>On #2, that is the cost of bringing it across the Pacific and paying duty to get it into the shop in Australia. I could buy it "cheap" on-line, but then:</P> <OL> <LI>By the time I pay freight it would be a close call on price.[?]</LI> <LI>If I was lumbered with duty - chipping away at the "cheap" price.[8]</LI> <LI>It would not have an Australian warranty - if it broke down send it back to the States?[:O]</LI> <LI>The guy who imports and stock NCE would go broke and close down. He also stocks other cool stuff like Loksound, so would be a shame to lose him.[2c]</LI></OL> <P>Hope it works well. I have not had a chance to try it yet. BTW, the guy I bought it from can't get enough. They are selling like hot cakes in Oz.[:D]</P>
