eBay probably. The SPA-2000 was discontinued some time ago. The SPA-2002
is its replacement.

I thought the SPA-2000 was current... what is the difference between the two
and do you know of a shop online where I can get the SPA-2002 for a good
price?
Or are there better/cheaper products of a similar nature?

The SPA-2002 has a different style of case, twice the memory and is
designed to allow the sending of fax over IP. You'd likely be happy with
either model.
www.voiptalk.org do the the SPA-2002 for a decent price but how about
trying your favourite search engine to get a comparison?
> Or are there better/cheaper products of a similar nature?
The 2000s and 2002s may be badged Sipura or Linksys. Also look for the
PAP2. The price differences can be significant but you are basically
getting the same functionality.

Do you particularly want the linksys/sipura SPA-2000?
There are other similar models...SPA-2002, linksys PAP2 etc. Or the 2
numbers ot one handset SPA-1001 (good price on www.broadbandstuff.co.uk - about the same price as in the US and that
is unusual - usually UK prices are about the same in £ as they are in
US$.)

Still, they are almost twice as expensive as on ebay.com - even including
shipping from US.

Could be just some standard blurb that they have copied into the
description. Before I bought one I'd check to see if it was locked. I
doubt it somehow, they would surely say to which operator it was
locked . They emphasise that the PAP2 is unlocked because they are so
often locked to Vonage. If the 1001 is locked then it can be obtained
for the same price, unlocked, from the US.

It says "can be" remotely provisioned. There's a difference. Flash it with
the latest firmware on the Sipura website and you'll be ok anyway.

You might also have to take into account the couriers extra charge for
dealing with customs formalities.

I was in communication with someone else from the UK who ordered an
SPA-1001 from a US supplier. He got it for about £39 inc post. He said
he didn't get charged any duty. That seemed stange but it is what I
was told.

If everyone could make an arrangement with Customs and Excise to get
similar treatment, buying goods from the States, or anywhere else
outside the EU, could result in saving money. But that's not going to
happen.
So a simple price comparison between two ATAs obtainable in both the UK
and the USA is incomplete.

Sometimes you get lucky and customs don't pull items over, I've had a
few things turn up that should have attracted duty and VAT but escaped.
