I ordered one last night from a computer store in Ottawa. I received it on this past monday. Beautiful screen! Calibrated it with my i1 Display 2 and it's just fantastic.
for anyone interested, this is the google maps view of the marina you see in this image: http://maps.google.ca/maps?hl=en&ie=UTF8&ll=49.272379,-123.116875&spn=0.002359,0.004828&t=h&z=18
it looks like this image was taken from around the base of the cambie bridge on the south side
I love how this is instantly recognizable as Vancouver. Yaletown, such a nice place. it's cool that you can make out the sign for the 4st exit on the Granville st. Bridge in the top left.
FTA:
"Stephen Ivell, the owner, thinks the company acted properly. He told the Telegraph: "It is just a shame that it did not work out because she is a lovely girl."
She was a lovely girl who was bored... Why the fuck did you fire her then?? Why not say to her "hey, if you're so bored...
wrongful dismissal. at least if it was here. you can't just fire someone because they said "my job is boring"
some of the comments here are just amazing. Why do people sign their lives over to corporations? Companies and their policies are bringing legal slavery back ever so slowly with...
Ummmm, I know it's nowhere near as complex... But we've had an automated rapid transit system in Vancouver for over 20 years now. I don't think there's EVER been an accident on it. Actually... It's the world's largest automated rapid transit system, if I'm not mistaken.
Until I see video of it in action, I will not get myself excited about it. Though, it would be cool to have an iphone with a large screen that reduces into a stick that you put into your pocket... like the things they used in Earth: Final Conflict.... or was it Tekwar?
they finally have it!

I don't know how long it's been up, but it's there now. woohoo!
uhh... Is it me or does no one know how to read? It's not saying the phones aren't coming to canada... it's saying they won't be sold in Apple Stores. It just means you have to buy them at Rogers stores. why is this such a horrible horrible thing?
i can't wait to get one. i live in canada and didn't want to deal with unlocking one, so this is gonna be sweet. good timing too, cus my current 5g ipod is dying a slow death. now i just have to hope that my current bell contact isn't going to cost me a ton to get out of.
I own an XPS laptop... just got it recently. I don't think the XPS ate into alienware much, because if the XPS didn't exist I still wouldn't have bought an alienware. It's just WAY too expensive to buy that stuff. Overpriced, silly looking, etc etc. my XPS 1530 is sleek. i like it.
They have nothing available yet. They didn't say anything about having one available in the near-future, but who knows. I still have to call dell about it. I'm lazy... :P
There's a reason that I refused to book my vacation to mexico unless the flight didn't touch american soil. There's just something about going through a border crossing for a country that you expect to be corrupt, over going through one where you assume they aren't.
Also, this has me...
