i chatted with them on their site (chat powered by Olark.com), and they said they shipped pre-ordered wakemates free to canada. might want to check in w/ them about shipping to your country.

I pre-ordered one and i'm in Australia. I figured $5 was worth the risk to see if they will ship it to me.

edit: and had i opened my eyes i would have seen the free shipping worldwide!

the free shipping to the UK and the aggressive price point was what got my pre-order. A while back I was looking at the FitBit, which specifically said 'we only ship to US right now'. FitBit should partner with a shipping specialist, since the device is small, and people like me would be willing to pay quite a lot of postage.

On the home page: "For a limited time: free worldwide shipping with pre-order!"

Yeah, they added that recently. I guess they got that question often.

Free shipping all the way to New Zealand, apparently!
