[Arm-netbook] pengpod tablets

[cnxsoft]

It also depends where you live. In my case, if I become a sponsor of a 
product in the US or Europe sold via indiegogo, I'll have to pay the 
import tax an/or VAT of the country of shipment (indirectly but it's 
added in Indiegogo) + the import and VAT tax in my own country. Double 
whammy!

Whereas if I buy from China, I've seldom have to pay any taxes because 
of the lower price (below a threshold there is no tax to pay) and some 
Chinese companies can be extremely cooperative...
