Simple. TMC will either have to take a hit on the exchange rate difference (unlikel) and hope it goes back up or increase the end cost to the user (more likely). One reason why we probably havent pricing yet is that they are looking at how the markets are doing and trying to get the price set as close to sale date as this will best correlate with the market for them. Crappy Euro means this could be "expensive" for them (at least more than they expected).

It's going to be a huge problem if the hat ever drops on Greece.

The German plan for Euro domination is coming along quite nicely it seems.
