as long as they have Mountain Dew. Unfortunately the Dew is difficult to do in the UK as it's not sold here (at least not at normal prices). I have to get my stash of Dew off smugglers who land it in wooden boats off the Cornish coast.

Getting stuff ready for MacWorld is always fun. The plan is to have the official release of the ToySight Gold demo (a playable demo of FlySight) on the Freeverse servers by Friday sometime, so that it's ready for when the guys are at MacWorld. I don't think we'll win Best Game of the show like last year, but an 8 player Rendezvous connected, camera and voice controlled fighter dogfighting game must be a first Smile

veeeerrry interesting Smile

Will have to try them when my current stash runs out. Looks like they're shipping straight from the USA as they don't include tax (so it's way cheaper than Cyber Candy, but could get stuck in customs for a month like almost everything else I order from the US :/ )

Excellent! My American Soda order arrived this morning, much cheaper than Cyber Candy and (as with CC) delivered from the UK, so no faffing around with customs. Had to ask for a different courier as their default is ParcelFarce, but still way cheaper than CyberCandy even with the higher postage costs.

They've also got a special 3 cases for the price of 2 offer on Mountain Dew until the end of April. I may have to stock up for summer Smile
