Is there anything that keeps someone in India from buying a bunch, and shipping them to the US for resale?

- wtmt 12y agoNothing apart from shipping costs (which may be equal to the price of the phone) and handling payments (which includes trusting people). There's probably a "Raspberry Pi like" market for such devices. This device does seem deficient in (at least) two respects though - a 2MP camera and the absence of 3G. So I don't see non-enthusiasts from other countries really flocking to this one (or the other one from Spice launching tomorrow). P.S.: I'm in India and could send a few across, although I have no idea how much it would cost to ship, the shipping duration, reliability of delivery, insurance costs, etc. Overall, worldwide shipping from one country to another at a personal level is somewhat painful.
