You could probably get an easyjet flight out there for cheaper.

Actually get a bulk load of orders from the uk and fly over and pick loads of them up and bring them to them back. That sort of business proposal would kill it on Dragons Den!

Just written on me blog about doing the arcade mod.

You may think the buttons look toyish but i swear, the feel of hitting them instead of those little buttons, specially when mashed, is well worth it

Well I dunno if it's worth going through the hassle of ordering from the states / djtt again though...

Paying custom charges again etc, but honestly I love them "fraking" arcade buttons.

The exact same arcade buttons are available in UK:

Loadsa cool colourways as well.

Hmmm interesting, the only thing is you need the overlay to draw where the arcade holes go...

But that is in no way insurmountable actually, just download the thingy for the machine shop i suppose...

Food for thought for you, paulmac

Mmmmm lol, i just watched that video and i never soldered anything in my life, im scared of hashing it up, is there a way i could get away with getting the holes cut with my current overlay on with out it gettin trashed and having to buy a new one?
