Here's a crazy idea I had. Why doesn't someone in the USA resell GP32s near-cost through a "special order" system? If you get someone's order, then order it through Entware, GBAX, etc.
I'm not sure of the legality of all this, but US really needs a good GP32 shop. I learned this after now a couple of teenage friends of mine really wanted a GP32, but couldn't get one because their parents were so distrustful of non-American companies.
It wouldn't need to be a real company unless you want to start one up. Just a tiny operation for getting GP32s to US citizens without fuss. An extra added bonus should be reselling downloadable games (GPCinema, etc.) for purchasers without credit cards and those wary of PayPal or the "mileage" system. With enough customers, you could start buying in bulk and get people a discount on shipping.
I might even start something up like this myself, if no one more economically-minded wants to try it, and I can find a supplier.
