...through the 7th or 10th(don't recall which exactly ATM) Borders/Kobo is kicking in a $10 gift card here too now... might have something to do with the Nook show an old reader, buy a Nook and get a 2GB uSD card w/30 books deal though...

[EDIT]
also I know that in Canada some things have an additional gov't. mandated addditional cost added to them, e.g. blank CD-ROM/DVD-ROMs to "compensate" "artists" for "loss" due to "copying"... and IIRC there was talk about extending it to solid-state storage devices and ISP surcharge as well, plus knowing Canada I'm sure that there are MANY more of these little gotchas littered through their legal system...
