Rumour mill has it that you only need to knock a few apples out the tree and she'll hold still long enough while eating them

So what is the best option for those of us in europe who missed out on the CE pre order, are there any bonuses to pre ordering the regular edition at play.com or game.co.uk?
there are pre-order boxes on ebay, im tempted but as mentioned before it sounds like without a CE box CD code none of the bonuses will work come main game, correct?

AFAIK Mythic have not yet announced the details of the regular edition of the game or any pre-order programme programme that might be associated with it. I seem to recall IainC or someone in authority saying that any programmes associated wih pre-ordering the regular edition would be conveyed in much the same way as the pre-order for the CE.
The codes from the CE pre-order programme will work thusly:
The open beta code will get you into open beta. That is the simple one.
But the headstart code to get you early access to the live servers and the in-game bonus items code ARE both affected by having or not having a CE code. Basically any account made using a headstart key will only have a short life time, at some point you will need to update your account with the code from a CE in order for your headstart account to continue. Otherwise you could essentially buy the game for the cost of the pre-order programme only. In order to allow for delays in getting the actual CE box to your doorstep they are going to let the headstart accounts run for a few days after the live servers are opened to all. If after that time no CE code is entered the account becomes locked until such time as it is reactivated with a CE code.
You could get one of those massively overpriced pre-order packs from Ebay but you need to hope that you could take it to a high street vendor to get a copy of the CE. Lots of people have been told they will need to produce the pre-order box and original receipt but then again some have been told nothing so you might get lucky.
I'm seriously considering going into town and picking up some copies of the pre-order box from my local HMV as they still had some a couple of weeks ago. If any UK based peeps want one I'll post 'em on with the reciept for the cost of a stamp (got loads of old ebay jiffy bags lying around
).

I rox, Gamesday UK is the Sunday before the launch, which i also guess will be the day before the headstart client goes live.
