... that I am now 'Pronto'd' and it was duty
free. It has a dark blue-green case... not that
there's anything wrong with that.

Congratulations Andy!!

The only thing that is overcoming my envy is my curiousity. A few questions:

1) How was it shipped & delivered (to your home or some postal outlet)and how long did it take?

2) I'm assuming you paid GST; how & where was it paid?

3) And,(I hope you don't mind) total payout (unit, recharger, delivery, insurance, GST) in CDN $

Thanks in advance!!!

Shipped via UPS directly to my door, left on 24th
arrived at 2:30pm today (Alberta).
UPS air expedited, $35.00US, ins. included for declared value of $399.00US. GST on ~$618.00CDN
or $43.30 collected by UPS guy.

Total... Pronto + 3dayUPS + GST = $717.00CDN
Exchange processed at $0.645
...and I didn't get the dock....maybe I'll
get it along with the software when that's ready.

Better get one......
very impressive build quality... large, bright
screen....strong IR transmitter....fits in hand well.....and it will get rid of those 8 pieces
of plastic crap scattered around my living room.
