I think both models look really good. I am disappointed in the Canadian pricing though. I compared a couple of cameras between the Canadian and USA sites and it was about $0.87 to $0.88 on the dollar which isn't that far off the exchange rate of $0.93.

These readers are at $0.72 and $0.75 on the dollar. It would appear that Sony is going to fund it's price war with Amazon at the expense of the rest of the world. Hopefully the pricing in other countries will be more reasonable.
