    Does anyone know if the MSRP for ASI notebooks from the States generally apply (with exchange rate conversion) to Canada?

    I can't find a Canadian dealer anywhere on ASIpartners.com or Google. :confused:

    I want the HL90. There is an ASI distributor in Richmond B.C., but of course, they won't sell to individuals. I finally managed to track down an actual dealer but was quoted a delivery time of 2 weeks for the WSXGA+ model. At this rate, I'm better off buying from the States.

    Are there any Compal dealers in Canada?

    Thanks, but the high res model is listed as unavailable when I click it. The prices are very nice though.

    Are Compal models available in Canada?

    Oh that sucks! I was just there yesterday and they definitely had an HL90TS+

    sorry man :(

    If they ever are out of stock... then you can still order it and they are pretty good at getting it ASAP.

    As for compal models in Canada, I haven't had a lot of luck that is why I bought my HL90 from ncix about 4 months ago. If I come across something though I'd be happy to post if I find something!

    Good luck in your searches!
