Check the paypal exchange rate though if paying using that method. I always find them to be lower than the official exchange rate.

- US$ - 0.8886 (way down)

I almost updated this last night, but the market had a big shift today, which affected the exchange rate in a big way - the US$ dropped by about 2cents.
The dollar should recover again slowly, but it might take time while there is unrest with global currencies, due to the Euro losing value with the Greece problems.

Typical, just in time for the BotCon registration (which is likely to be out before the currency recovers), so this plunge will cost us more with registration expenses.
