Impressive. I was recently informed by our Farnell rep that we can now order parts stocked by Newark in the US (Farnell have bought Newark) with a AU$30 delivery fee and 3 business day delivery, no matter how big or small the order. For those in Aus/NZ, Rockby (www.rockby.com.au) and Electus (www.electusdistribution.com.au) are both very good value and deliver reliably.
