Zero. There's only GST payable and they'll only charge it on values over
$500 (landed, including freight charges)

It's a bit old. Check to see if it will run the current software you want.

It may be old - but it's a great deal, especially when you consider
the prices for a real secondhand PDA on trademe - this one is
brandnew. I may get a colour m515 instead but these are far less
common and a lot more expensive on eBay. If I can get one at a good
price, I will buy one.

Thanks everybody for your advice re customs charges - the customs
website didn't specifically say what was charged on a PDA. Thanks
again.
