    We all know that Ireland's located between the US and the UK, that's ver obvious. My question is... Why does it take so damn long for stuff that gets released on sold in both these countries takes ages to get here? A good example would be technology, it took ages for to get my android phone although it was released three months ago in the USA.

    Also why is everything limited in here? And over priced?

    Please mind my lame English

    Many times it's to test the markets before investing huge amounts to release them into different countries. HDTVs had been available in the US for years before we even got a glimpse of them
