Are they available on the domestic UK market? I was rather hoping they weren't

It was available from Traxdata, then they went bust, so I don't know. They'll probably offer you an iPod or something, which you can refuse. If you can prove it's value then you *can* ask for cash instead - you don't have to do what they say.

My uncle dropped his ancient 286 amber screen lugabout and claimed on his accidental damage insurance - they said he could have anything as long as it was under £1k and it came from dabs.com - he didn't complain there!
