Folks,
On fleabay there's a load of netbook pros for £185 "buy it now" from Italy available to Europe in general

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130130971979

I bought one on Wednesday, it arrived from Milan at 11am on Thursday! It's in good condition, battery seems good (was completely flat when it arrived) and the seller is helpful.

Hope someone finds this helpful and not too budget breaking!
Nick.

A little late for April Fool's Day, chiark? Delivered from Italy to the UK in 24 hours? And let's have a look at the listing: "The seller ended this listing early because of an error in the listing."

You can always buy them from the website direct: http://www.sympaticotech.it

I did the legwork as it did look too good to be true, but given that sympaticotech.it had them for €269, I thought the ebay price was about right so went ahead and bought it. The fact that they were listed on their website suggested it was legitimate - or a particularly elaborate hijack!

Still available...

"The seller ended this listing early because the item is no longer available for sale." You folks must be pulling my leg.

Which do you prefer, a G138 or Psion Netbook Pro? That is the question!

CE Geek, i dont know why you are unable to check the seller's other listings..

he has two auctions going on - silly ebayers already bid more than the BIN price was on those 25, maybe thats why he removed those, hoping he can get more for them?

I see a link, I click on it. Not a big fan of the Netbook Pro anyway.

no need to choose..i already have the former


anyway hard to say, the G138 is smaller but the netbook pro is more functional (more slots, removable and good battery, more professional in some other respects too).
