On Kobo Canada's website, the Kobo Forma - 8.0" 300 PPI 8GB Waterproof Wi-Fi is going to be offered at CDN $299.99+tax

So, isn't the Forma competitively priced for the high-end market (in Canada at least), or am I missing something?
Definitely competitively priced vs. the Oasis in Canada. I don't understand why the Oasis is so expensive in Canada (it's $270 in the U.S. without special offers). There is only a $10 difference between the Oasis and Forma in the U.S. Weird.

I notice the Voyage is in the lineup in Canada? (Although it says "Currently Unavailable".)
