I can't imagine why Swaro would not offer the same in the US as elsewhere, that's weird. That's a pity, really. Maybe they'll get around to it shortly. In the meantime, some HD5 models are the choice, or the Leica ERi, which, money aside, is probably the best choice from what I hear. I don't like their plex reticle, way to fine for my use, but with illumination, 2 0z lighter weight, lots of mounting room, great eye relief and wonderful glass...along with the locking turrets, it's a solid choice...comes with a solid price though.
That being said, cameraland has a demo IBS reticle one for 1249...they don't show the plex one in their list right now, but I gotta think it's in the 13-1400 range. Might be something to consider. The HD5 seems to be easily had in the 8's currently, so that 600 bucks more, but I do hear nice things about the Leica.
