Really? I wasn't aware of that, or are you referring to the fact that a lot of 
gear is much more expensive in the UK, resulting in similar numbers. I've 
never seen anything advertised at X dollars and X L Sterling, this "release" 
stated a retail price in $ and Euros that was the same, I've just never seen 
that.

Anyway, I certainly *hope* it was a prank.
