Concerning newegg, I contacted them once and the lady told me that habitually, items that were ''deactivated'' would not come back. Assuming to the posts of ppl here, a good option is mobile city online, who sell the N900 for 629$ + 30$ for regular shipping or 60$ for express. Some people get charged 80$ for taxes, some don't, it's a dice roll. Anyway, I ordered mine yesterday night from mobile city online, they called me today to confirm and I will get my tracking number very soon. I took the express shipping:)
Good luck in getting yours!! Post when you order it, and where you ordered!

@gtessier00: So, did you have to pay a bunch of extra taxes? Mines been shipped now by FedEx, and I keep thinking that if I end up paying US$689.94 plus $100 taxes, I'm going to feel dumb for not ordering from expansys.ca.

Well, next up is ordering a screen protector. I'm going with Clarivue, if they ship to Canada.
