Just a quick note, if you are in the US and want to get UK versions at
minimum cost, order them from Canada.

I got mine from Chapters.Indigo
http://www.chapters.indigo.ca/
Remember that the prices are mark in Canadian Dollars which are worth
less than US Dollars, so the prices may seem high, but after
conversion they are very reasonable. Current price at todays exchange
rate = CA$25.80 = US$19.34.

For anyone interested in comparing, here are the exchange rates:
(Jan 17, 2003)

US$1.00 = BP£0.618 - CA$1.535
CA$1.00 = BP£0.403 = US$0.651
BP£1.00 = US$1.618 = CA$2.484

There are also available for Amazon.ca

Sadly, since I don't qualify for Candian Postal Saturday deliver, I'll
have to wait until Monday for mine to ship which means I won't get it
until Wednesday or Thursday.

Just passing it along.
