Hello wbr,

Given that the PandaBoard will be priced around 179 USD, the shipping
should be free from either distributors. So, shipping costs are a moot
point here.

Additionally, I have noticed that Farnell's prices are much higher
that Digikey's. For example, the BBxM costs 269 SGD at Digikey but 387
SGD at Farnell.

Hello Jay,

I do not think that those distributors are fair to my continent,
Africa. I have tried to order BBxM, no distributor would like to ship
to my country(Nigeria) except one distributor . And that one, they
ship
only through Fedex, and I was told that I should part with 150USD for
shipment charges. I immediately lost interest in whole thing. I would
appeal for a distributor with Africa at heart.
I distribute Arduino boards in my country(shamelessly advertising
myself), however it is still not a sophisticated market and I am
trying to create the market. But I must add that I believe that there
is a huge potential here. I would appeal that if you won't mind
distributors like me should also be considered .

Regards,
Emeka

Hello, xslr!

for me (russia), BBxM:

digikey = 179 + 120 / usd
farnell = 149 + 20 / euro
