    I see people refer to amazing prices for the Playbook, but when I google around, I see the usual high prices.... or fairly low, but from an unknown seller.

    Not sure what price you consider to be 'amazing' but did you consider buying it from ShopBlackberry (RIM)?

    Not in the market for one, but the first 3 Canadian big box websites I tried (bestbuy/futureshop/staples) all have the 32 gigs available for $150. For what it's worth that still seems high to me. No 16 gigs available, but they recently listed for $100. They will probably crack open another shipping container or three of the 16 gigs soon.

    USA: 64gb for 239 last Saturday at office depot. Plus they price matched staples.com's clearance price on the journal case (15).

    One of the best websites to get a Playbook in the U.S. is CheetahDeals.com | Great Deals on Brand New and Refurbished Computers. I am not sure if they still have the Playbook in stock but as of a few weeks ago, they had the 32GB for $159 and the 64GB for $179..it is worth a look. They are reputable and if it says refurbished, I would not hesitate, everything I got refurbished there seems even better than brand new. This website is awesome and stands behind their products and you can purchase extended warranties as well.

    I did see a hp touch pad I'm thinking about to add to my collection thanks for the heads up. :-)

    I would try Hong Kong ebay site. You'll probably have to pay for the shipping. The price is still pretty decent.

    In Canada - The Source has the 64GB on for $199.00, 32GB for $149.00 through its web site. List the 16GB but only through stores and most of them are sold out. I bougth a 32GB through Stapples a mounth ago for $118.00, they had none in stock you had to order it in.

    Well as you mentioned you can give them as holiday gifts, the 16GB Playbook is not too shabby of a gift! Keep checking the website because they get the Playbooks back in stock all the time but for 129 for a 16GB, you cannot go wrong.

    Aren't they selling refurbished units. That's a terrible price if they are. You can get a brand new unit cheaper than that if you shop around.

    I do not agree, all there items look and work like brand new and they back their items with a warranty, I love shopping for electronics there. And their customer service is great.
