My assumption is that it is not legal (if they are classed as mod chips then definitely not legal), however I have never had any problems importing other carts into the UK.
thanks for the reply. To reassure myself before i buy an Edge DS, i want to ask another question, are there any laws which make importing carts like R4,M3,Edge DS into the UK illegal?
you could buy from the uk instead of importing one from here - http://www.addictsupplies.com/index.php?act=viewCat&catId=8 they have just had a delivery of the edge ds and in stock ! ( stock counter for each product they sell , so you know before you buy if they are in stock or not ) bought from them about 5 times now with no probs at all , first class delivery in the uk , can highly recommend them. woof811.
