And they're more expensive, of course.

Order direct fron Olimex.  I don't think Taylec are particularly
effective.  He asks you to sign a credit card form and fax it back, but
after that I've always been informed when the good despatch and they
take a week or so by surface mail and to clear customs (I usually order
more than $100 worth of kit to qualify for free shipping).  I believe
you can also go for the express option and get it sooner by air.

They are a solid operation, not a fly-by-night.
