OK, Having read many threads here about buying
the TSU7000 in the US for the UK I bit the bullet
and made my purchase from BlueDo.com. They couldn't
have been more helpful during my purchase (believe
me, I sent them many e-mails with various queries!).
The remote arrived in 5 working days via UPS and
I had to pay £24.10 import duty (I asked BlueDo
to declare it as a gift with a value of £50.00).
This made the total price for my TSU7000 £440.00.
Bearing in mind that the RU970 retails in the
UK for about £575.00 I reckon I got a bargain!
Still no release date or price info for the TSU7000
/ RU980 in the UK. You can bet it's gonna be in
the £800 - £900 area. As far as voltage compatability
for the charger goes, I just used my old RU890
power supply with no problem at all. If anyone
out there in the UK is considering a colour Pronto,
all I can say is buy the TSU7000 from the US,
save a fortune and enjoy a fantastic remote!
I'm currently living in Ireland and was just about to purchase the TSU7000, but after reading a few of the replys I need to to ask you a question or two if you don't mind. My concern is I have X10 automation devices for the home cinema lighting etc. and reading the few replys has left me a bit confused. Have you fully tested yours out yet with your existing kit? X10 if you have it.. How do you find the remote? I currently own the RU something or other 2mB memory. How did you rate the web site you bought from? Is there anything I should look out for when ordering? Thanks for your time. Enjoy the remote.....
