The $2990 deal is still being advertised by them. The panels are Sharp and have a 25 year warranty so that's good i guess.
Although i love the environmental thing, especially with Victoria burning black coal for electricity, i doubt we would have done it if it had cost too much upfront (like $20k - eek!)

suse - i wish we needed ours for cooling! lol It was 3 degrees here this morning!
