@Mark, that already exists. And it's called smuggling :)

Why is it that google Kenya doesn't, despite having one of the biggest offices in Africa here in Kenya, facilitate the availability of their devices locally?

I have been looking at the new Nexus 7 and would have liked to own it. But we are yet to become a 'true target market' to get their attention.

I am wondering the viability of a service where you can get travellers to carry electronics in their hand luggage hence avoid the whole tax thing. there must be alot of travellers between the US and here weekly. If the mark-up could be like 50 dollars a device then it could be worthwhile for travellers maybe?

Was thinking of the same, but then shipping here plus the IDF and newly introduced VAT will put the price to almost the cost here I presume

Saw this today and wanted to get the 16GB version only to get the "Shipper doesn't ship to your destination" Any way to work around that?

Hi Skunks,

If you were eyeing the Nexus 4, then you can now get it at $100 less.

Regards,

Joseph.
