    That's a fair price by Lenovo US standards, but seems to be a very good deal in Canada. Congratulations, and hope you get it soon!

    Not really Thinkpad-related, but if you are in Australia, the Dell Vostros are offered are at great prices (almost same as Canadian prices). I own the previous generation Vostro 1500 and am really happy with it -- performance, build quality and value for money. Plus the complete care upgrade price is peanuts compared to what Lenovo charges.
