    Hi, im wondering is it illegal to order R4's from america into the U.K.

    And also, how do i know whether an R4 is a clone? I already have 2 clones and cant put Wood firmware on them to play Pokemon Black...

    Im planning to buy the R4's from this website: http://www.r4ds-ds.com/products/R4-DS-Revolution-MicroSD-TF-Slot-1-Solution-Adapter-p-120.html

    thanks

    You can order flash cards from:
    www.xpertron.co.uk

    They sell most of them.

    its not a recent thing, but as far as I'm aware they're only illegal to sell in retail stores within the UK. Besides the police have much more important things to do.
