I know I just complained about how long it would take to get SR3 into
the stores here in Australia, but I really don't know how long that's
actually likely to be. (Just that it will be well after the rest of the
world.)

Does anyone know the rough time delay between US availability date and
Australian?

Well, considering that they'll be shipped by boat, December is a pretty
good approximation.

As long as Bull is airmailing the hardbound to you, you should ask him
to wait a couple of weeks and stuff a softcover in the envelope too. That
way, you'll have both :)

It doesn't take anywhere near that long to get the new sourcebooks out
here once they are in print so why is it going to take so long to get
SR3 to Aus? I've suspended my Shadowrun campaign because I thought I
was only going to have to wait until late August/early September.

Arghhh, there is no way I can afford to get a copy from Amazon or
anything like it. This bites in a BIG way.
