    Shorter warranties on stuff from the US. I personally would just buy it here, 55 euro isn't much of a difference.

    Um no you won't save 55 euro. In fact, you'll probably get hit for nearly that much in customs duty.

    Plus, this guy is shipping only to the U.S.

    aye, you'll probably get stung for customs too, forgot about that! Plus you'll have to wait longer.

    The only way to get the U.S. discount is to get a friend or relative going over to smuggle one back.
    Plus, U.S. Warranties generally don't apply in Europe. Most organisations will have a US branch, a European Branch, an Asian Branch etc.
    They won't support a device, unless you send it back to their American returns department... usually...

    No problem.. .I'm actually looking for a Zen Micro too. If you find any cheap ones I'd appreciate if you dropped me a note. :D

    Edit: Cheapest I've seen are on www.komplett.ie for €255, but they're not in stock till the new year :(
