is it possible for any sony world to import sony products from abroad on order(which may not have been released in india but are available at other places eg hongkong)? i heard sometime back that they can do this.

actually i am looking to preorder the sony prs-500 whenever it releases(slated anytime this month). However there is fat chance sony is ever going to release this here.

so has anyone done or tried this. if so what are the rates like?
