They seem to have changed it, in the sense that the majority of the items now say "We're sorry, but the <insert product name here> is sold out at this time, or is no longer available" when you search for them on the site with South Africa selected as your country. Change it to the USA and the products magically reappear. Most likely due to restrictions on what they are allowed to export as per agreements with the gear manufacturers - which has always been the reason why the majority of the bigger USA online stores don't ship internationally.

Exactly...
Stupid product restrictions!
oh well, where there's a will, there's a way! i just got my ipod nano 16gb from the states... paid R1000 , a saving of R900 from the cheapest place here in SA!
