More illegal international trade

At the risk of being on some sort of Homeland Security Watch List, I did do one other questionable international trade deal recently.

Like the french realized years ago when we were there, Donal and Jamie realized that Apple doesn't really try to keep the prices of their products in sync with current foreign exchange rates. That makes the new iPod Touch about $150 smacks cheaper in the US vs Europe. No doubt people will start screaming about the cause being European Socialism, but it's really has more to do with European Communism - so don't worry.

And getting them back into Ireland was a non-event. Thanks to Apple's green packaging that makes minimal waste, those puppies were small in my luggage.
