    I hear this all the time....did the Canadians act untoward RIMM publicly in the past? I can't think why sales in Canada aren't offered the same time they are offered here in the lower 48.

    It's still a sale.

    Find a rogers employee and get it for $99.

    why are people so shocked? did you not think this was a bestbuy sale? RIM has no control over that. Bestbuy isn't Cdn.

    Don't feel too bad. I have an order for 4 BlackBerry PlayBooks and not a single tablet has shipped yet. Only three weeks waiting and Christmas is a mere one week away as of today. The blow-out sales are likely over until after Christmas assuming there is any inventory that has not already been stolen or otherwise moved off the accounting books.

    Maybe Alvin, Simon, and Theodore are in charge and Jim and Mike are bobble-heads, I mean figureheads.

    If it's a BestBuy sale why are they on sale at Staples and Office Depot as well?

    they are at the old pricing at Office Depot, but come with a $200 gift card. I'm down for 3 more 16 gb if i can get them for $199 before Christmas

    Hey guys, best I've managed to find in Canada is this. Also, it's straight up $200 discounted, no store credit BS. Not as cheap as the sale today in the states, but pretty good...

    No advertised, but on sale on the Source (aka. Radio Shack) website. $200 off 16Gb, $210 off 32Gb and $220 off 64Gb.

    That's nice, but the Source is sold out online and in store. You can only add it to a "wishlist".

    Also, it's $200 off all models if just purchasing a PB only. The $210 and $220 amounts are for PB bundles. Once again, moot point, they're sold out.

    Tried that....Rogers is out-of-stock.

    Did see a Rogers store displaying a 16gb for $199. They didn't have any and wouldn't take orders

    There is no outlet in the Brantford area with stock. I was hoping there might be some Boxing Day deals on the PB - but I think I'll be disappointed!

    The 16gb playbook is on sale for $199 at the source, staples and walmart next week in Canada. Not sure about bestbuy and futureshop though.
