Yep. Testing however can be a little expensive so I was wondering if  
this has been done. Note that this marking is mandatory when selling  
products in the "European Economic Area" and testing has to be done  
before you put the mark on your product, so if somebody asks for it,  
you have to be able to give the results  to them immediately, not in  
a few weeks while you get your stuff tested.

Just mentioning this because it should be added to the product page.  
Makes it clear that this product can be sold in Europe.
