Well, fairly easy. Add a column called 'flat_ship' to your products table,
and populate it with the shipping charge for each item. Then modify
shipping.asc, adding your new mode. It should look something like this (->
= TAB):
peritem -> Standard shipping -> flat_ship -> 0 -> 99999 -> f @@TOTAL@@
sorry, I just don't use the shipping interface in the UI, so I honestly
can't tell you how to create it that way, but I am sure it is quite easy.
Finally, add the new shipping mode to the appropriate records in your
country table, and Apply Changes.
