I believe they are B

you could link ur friend to this .......

http://bluray.liesinc.net/

so they know which titles should work and what not.



or look at this....

Orange is A ...
Green is B
Purple is C

However looking at your location I think you would both be B

How is the Burj Dubai Skyscraper comming along? I check the website from time to time. It is around 160 - 170 floors now, the worlds tallest structure. And it is not even finished. Rumered to be 200 floors when done. Looks real cool from the pics I have seen. Dubai is one of the places I want to visit sometime.

2009
It has topped out in January at 818 meters. Meanwhile Kuwait's City of Silk, is planning Burj Mabarak, a 7.37 billion 1,001 meter (3,300 ft) building to be compleated by 2016. Its height Inspired by the tale One Thousand and One Nights. The Madinat Al Hareer.

I think amazon is best if you don't get that in local store but make sure it is region free before ordering.

Ebay is good i will buy many over there too.
