    I mentioned it as an FYI on another thread. It's a good Amazon deal made better with the Rim 100 for the 16gb. I'm waiting for a better deal on the 64gb plus the Rim 100.

    Can't ship to Canada, FYI.

    I'm sick of Amazon and most of their items not being shippable to Canada.

    Why the **** do we keep getting shafted on the discounts? Especially in the case when the Manufacturer is a Canadian company for **** sakes!

    they are currently at $393 but no longer fufilled by Amazon.

    Question: Are they still Eligible for the $100 MC if they are no longer filled by Amazon but are still new?

    There's nothing fishy, you click where it says "53 New" or whatever number is listed and you will see a detailed list of which Amazon affiliates and sales partners have stock and their current prices. 3rd party sales partners can set their own shipping restrictions.

    ...and there are a whole lot of retailers offering the Playbook at a discounted price right now.

    Rogers is offering $100 off any Blackberry device, including Playbooks. i just bought my son one there last week.

    I also mailed in the rebate form for the $100 back to school rebate. I don't put a lot of faith in these types of rebates or base my buying decision on them.

    Did you have to sign up for a new service or contract to get the 100 dollar Rogers discount on the Playbook?

    I was getting a 9900 at the same time and they took $100 off both the phone and the Playbook, but I don't think I needed to buy a phone to get the playbook deal. You might want to check the Rogers site or ask at a local store to see the details of the offer and if it is still available.

    Canada Computers is also selling the Playbooks at $399/$499/$599. Unfortunately its an in-store purchase only because of low stock levels, but thought I'd put it out there for the Canadians...

    Too bad, that's where I buy some PC stuff, I bought a couple Razer mice from them (Mississauga HQ).

    That's a great deal, but I won't be able to use my $100 RIM credit...
