Default tix for Borghese Gallery?

Borghese's website ( http://www.galleriaborghese.it/ )
has a link to its ticketing website ( http://www.ticketeria.it ).
When one tries to purchase tickets online though,
it only appears to allow purchase for the next 11-12 days.
Is this really true or am I just missing something?
That would mean that we would have to purchase our tickets online
while in Italy and I don't have a laptop to bring along.
Is there any other reliable and trustworthy alternative?

Thanks.

You could try calling them the number is on their website perhaps? you
can book it farther out (they will have English speaking reservation
operators)?
Or perhaps call your hotel while in Italy and ask them to book it for
you?

www.contextrome.com has a great tour of the gallery.
It's €45 plus the 10.50 ticket cost and the group is limited to 6
persons of less.

I took it in '05 with an Art Historian IIRC, he was also a published
author and someone (History Channel, A&E, BBC, ?) was planning to make a
documentary on his book about the great/major palazzos of Rome.

I just looked a Context's website for July and the 3 Docents for that
tour are;
(1) Ph.d in Art History, (2) MA in Art Conservation who is working in
that field in Italy, (3) An Art Historian (Oxford, Uni London, Temple
Uni, Metro Museum of Art, etc).
