Hey Joshua, I live in Toronto too.
I was wondering if you could tell me where you bought your n900 from?
Local pick up? or ordered online?
Thanks

If you're ordering via the states, good luck with those 'brokerage' fees.
Here's a cost calculator to find the final price of your US purchase.

Wow, Capt'n, that's a really good calculator. It helps explain why the no-hassle companies like expansys.ca often seem so much more expensive until you get the final bill.

Easiest way for Canadians to get it would be to simply cross the border into the U.S. , walk into a Besy Buy and purchase one, then take it home. Yes, Best Buy will have them, they've already got it listed on their website.

When buying from the states, ebay is king. Many retailers ship USPS which has a flat rate brokerage cost (something in the order of $5, last time I checked).

Any update on Canadian retailers carrying the N900?
It's almost as if Canada has been forgotten!

The other option I guess is expansys, though it is substantially higher, around 700 - 800 CDN as opposed to 650 CDN from Amazon after taxes, I wish I got on that dell deal though.

Does your n900 camera produce hazy "bluish" images?
