The price difference is just trying to squeeze europeans more than they squeeze north americans. The sad thing is we collectively allow them to do that.
My n800 writes "Made in Finland". But that's not the point. What I find unacceptable is the fact that the price in Europe is more than double of that in the US. The best price at the moment in Europe is 330 euros and in the States 158 euros!!!

I wanted to buy one as a present to good friend, but now I'm convinced that I should give my money to someone that gives me more respect.

Edit: Replaced the Euro sign since it was dislayed as '?'
