    All I have to say is that hey charge far too much for delivery if they have huge amounts of money to spend on 'interesting' ideas.

      Its supply and demand Lumpy. They aren't in business to make a loss.

      Most of the stuff I've bought from Amazon is free delivery anyway.

        The file is 2 years old Snadge so wouldn't expect anything too soon.

          Maybe they are just hedging there bets in case anyone else has a similar idea?

          From patent to dvelopement would take a lot longer than 2 years anyway I reckon?

            I always use the free delivery option so they can't charge any less!

            Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

            Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

              I think it's all puff, which gets Amazon loads of free publicity, even on BBC!

                I didn't know that there is a free delivery option.

                  Sometimes the item will be free PnP, other times it may say free PnP over £20 but it always shows something.
