Hopefully they do a deck return program like guns

One of my Aussie mates has a theory them not getting the Steamdeck is payback for the Australian Government forcing Valve to offer refunds.

I'll never stop thanking Australia for that, because it forced Valve to put their policy world-wide which then forced the even shittier companies to do the same.

Well, most of them at least.

Hopefully the Oceania folks can order soon!

That would be great. Also have two already. Hopefully prices go down. Its much cheaper to get a PS5 than an oled steam deck here.

My bonus just came in today. Was planning to order one of these this week. Not sure of I'll wait to see what's happening at PAX. All they've said so far is that Steam will be there.
