Am contemplating this cartridge. Anyone else?

Current info 7/8:
ortofon-shop.com currently lists the cartridge but USA buyers cannot use it.
ortofon.us is the USA site but currently does not list the cartridge.
I spoke with Ortofon USA and was told that they are not doing preorders, the cartridge would be released at the time of the Beatles mono box release and that there would be plenty of supply. Also, the European site is for preorders only.

Interestingly, the Euro site lists 400 pounds as the price but when it goes in the basket, the VAT is removed, leaving the cart at 320 pounds. But, as I said, it will not accept a credit card from a US buyer.

That's my update.

The Needle Doctor shows it available for $339.  Wonder how it stacks up against the old Denon 102? I've been happily using the Denon for several years.
Oops, it's not the SE version.

Since I only have one arm on my SME 20/2, I do not plan to buy this or any other mono cartridge. Instead, I will use the mono setting on the phono stage.

Time to get another table. I mean an additiional one. Everyone should have two. (your B&O won't accommodate a mono cart, sorry!)
