		| Hi Jess, 
 Thank you for your query.
 
 We hope to have a pre-order facility for Canada in the next few weeks.
 Thank you for your patience and please check back agin soon.  Our
 technical team are working on this now.
 
 Your question about the buttons is very interesting.  We’ve made sure
 users won’t accidentally flick though the pages if the COOL-ER is in
 their pocket or handbag.  Each button requires a tiny but perceptible
 click which helps ensure users will always find the COOL-ER displays the
 page they left it on.
 
 I've used my COOL-ER to read several books and have found that the
 button click is neither loud or annoying.  In fact it becomes as
 unobtrusive as turning a paper page when reading.
 
 I hope this helps and happy reading!
 Best regards,
 Kate

 funny how they actually have a reason for the stiff buttons. maybe the reviewers were exhaggerating a little bit? the only way i'll be able to find out is by getting one myself i guess :P
