I believe B&H Photo will ship into Canada, but they'll only ship by UPS, so once you add in shipping charges + duties + brokerage + GST/PST/HST you'll have paid the same amount (or more!) as buying it from Future Shop or Best Buy or Sony.

You may want to try checking Ebay - some sellers might be willing to ship USPS. Or if you're close enough to the border, maybe you can take a day trip. But then you'd have to stay for...what? 3 days? if you didn't want to pay duties and taxes.

I checked everywhere I could think of when I was shopping (in March), and never was able to find a cheaper source.
