Have you also considered the fact that it may not go up for quite a while, and may actually head down towards $2 to the pound? Its been there before!!!!
I've still got money in the UK from my house sale from last year. Kept waiting for the exchange rate to go up that little bit more. Its amazing how greedy you can get. 2.45....2.5....2.55.....2.6. keep going i'll change at 2.65. the 2.53 i was offered back in December looks quite nice now (DOH!). Fortunately I'm in no rush to buy here. They reckon prices are starting to slide and i wouldn't say the Australian economy is at the most stable at the moment. So I'm still watching and waiting.

Of course I've considered it, doesn't matter a jot as I haven't sold my house yet
