How to get the US-Version in Europe?

Hi,

as far as I know the US - release is scheduled for March 06. whereas the European release is at April 18. ...

Does anyone know a company that sells/ imports the US-Version to Europe? I certainly can't wait longer than March 6.!!! Have been waitingfor years now...
(Amazon US is very clear on shipping in the US only, Amazon UK has the release scheduled for April 18.)

Having to play the the German version is no option anyway... could you believe the guys from Liberty speaking German... (*ackh*)

And as we all know by now "Germany is a problem... - Germany and France are not Europe.. - they are old Europe" (D. Rumsfeld)

I allways knew I was a problem
I would be gratefull for any ideas / links.

For everybody in Berlin:

Pro-Markt at the Ku'damm says they will get FL the 24.Feb !? can't be, but I thats what their database says. No info on language, he said probably the german version.

Thanks for that info - but don't trust Promarkt & Co. they are the worst informed people... (no wonder that business might go bankrupt soon )

I have found one online-retailer who has serious info on the US-Version and has confirmed delivery shortly after the US-release date. (That is PC-Fun) http://www.pcfun.de/site/index.htm
They will ship to other European countrys (that will include extra shipping costs though)

Most of the online retailers have either weird infos (German release before US, no US version at all *lol* all kinds of weird dates...and worst of all "Freelancer" what is that?)

CDROMshop.com is excellent. I preordered E&B there last year and my copy was in waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay before the shops started selling it (I'm in Holland btw). I got it in like 4 or 5 days, pretty fast (courier tho...).

I've sent an email to them asking if Freelancer can be preordered and listed. I'll post with an update when I get more info.

The first place to look for original versions is Okaysoft. I always buy my games there and I've never been disappointed. If you preorder it there they will send you mails if there are any release changes, then you´re still able to cancel it.

I for one will order it there, I'm sure I'll get it in time

Cool logo you have in your sig. Nicely done!
