Been thanking you for them. Have you signed up over at SD? It's got a great filter tool.

Doesn't hurt that I live about an hour from the border and that in June exemptions will be going up to $400 for being outside Canada 24 hrs and $800 for being away 48 hrs. Purchases from Amazon and NE are also tax free to Buffalo, NY.

I need a pants with 12 or more pockets. Know of any deal?

Yes, I see that I've been thanking you back You live an hour from the boarder, and I live 1hr and 30 mim from the boarder. Yes I know about the new exemptions, I called Canada boarder services about 1 month ago and they told me that this hopefully will happen soon (June). It is not 100% confirmed as it has to pass all the bureaucratic bs, but 99% that it will happen. Amazon, NE, buy.com and many others that I've been using lately no tax and free shipping are my preferred choices. I suggest you open a Bank Account with Chase or Bank of America, that way you will have US card with CBI address and if you are an android user, Amazon, will allow you to buy free apps everyday as long as that card is listed on your amazon account hint hint, also there are many more benefits of having US credit/debit card. Yes, I've singed up with SD + many more. I just subscribe to news letter. I can't do more RSS feeds, my head hurts from all of them.

12 or more pockets in your pants? sure I know of the site. That's where I buy mine from. tacticalgear.com Check it out, I recommend Blackhawk brand

Closest specs at Canadian BB is this one at $700

You should use AND instead of BUT zz000ter. Everything points to the US deal being better.

Does the warranty work in Canada ?

I believe it does. Asus offers North American warranty. Even guy at the best buy store who was trying to sell me the extended warranty was like "sorry, I forgot, asus offers NA warranty"

True if the Canadian version doesn't come with the much-loved bilingual keyboard.

you can open an american bank account without social security number and address?

[andriykoua]

You just need a Canadian passport and drivers license
