Don't get too upset--the prices are all over in the States too. I'm
tempted to move to New Jersey just to get in on Moose's offer. Prices
to install solar in Florida--you know, the Sunshine State--are probably
about $30,000 for that 7KW system Moose is talking about...if you can
find an installer. Or at least when I inquired about the smallest
system I could put on my house it started just north of $30k. That was
a year-ish ago.
