I received an ad from Amazon this AM promoting what is the $79 Kindle in the US. It is $109 in Canada, and with the various shipping charges it is $124. I went through the purchase process to see the entire cost, but did not complete it. No bargain for us with that and I assume that the price differential will be similar when they finally decide to ship the Fire to Canada, as well.
