This is probably a better plan than importing something without paying taxes. If Brexit happens, there's still Ireland for an English Dell website in the EU.
(Like most other European layouts, the British/Irish one will mean the ISO layout rather than the American (ANSI) layout. Other than the additional key giving space for £ and ¬, there's not much difference; so you might prefer that if you want to keep a vertical-shape enter key.)
There's a 9370 on mindfactory.de, doesn't say it's the dev edition, but the os is specified as Ubuntu. And the exact configuration I want, i7 16/512 FHD. The price seems ok, the only flaw being the german layout with the vertical enter key.
