just wondering if anybody knows a reseller or somewhere which would have these or could get them in cheaply to within 200km of the Auckland region.
Do you make it down to the south island much? My mother is in Christchurch, and I could send her one that you could then purchase directly from her for cash (after examining the unit to make sure it's OK).

Based on the U.S. purchase price of an N800 (~$380) plus shipping and the time involved, at current exchange rates you'd be looking at ~$NZ575.

Alternatively you could just wire her some money directly (she tells me wiring money within NZ is actually easier than it is here in the states) and I could send a unit to you, but I realize you're taking something of a risk there that you might not be comfortable taking.

Im so jealous of you guys i may end up just using my laptop for open street maps.
I own a copy of Tumonz... it's pretty nice, at least for tramping purposes!
