Yip I have to agree with some of those points. Particularly expecting download and save buttons at the bottom. I’m not so sure about this sanctioning of the colour red for errors. I’ve heard it being mentioned a few times but never seen anything to suggest it’s true.

Agreed, but that would require a lot of trickery, such as external microphones and a bit of cabling. I’ll look into doing something like that next year, and see how good it turns out.

Would be even cooler if you could get the engine sound without too much noise from the wind on the movies!

“Too bad the price here in Norway is above USD 4000, so it’s actually cheaper to fly to the US, buy it and fly back to Norway. ”

Let’s see. The dollar price I’ve seen quoted is $2700 (excl. sales tax). Using a currency conversion of 1 USD = 5.8 NKR (not sure how much the credit card companies tack onto the conversion, but I know they add something) that’s NKR 15660. Add 25% VAT and we’re up to 19575. At an estimated retail cost in Norway of NKR 24000 that does leave enough cash to fly to the US and back. Let’s say 4000 for the ticket. Which ends up with a total price of 23575. That’s a lot of work to save NKR 425. :P
