    Hey has anyone had any experience with this laptop? Its going for $1499 CAD, is this a decent price? I was also looking at the 780CTO, but I don't know how much duty and such would be involved in shipping it over here from the States...

    Thanks!

    Oh and does anyone know what the "NC3" stands for?

    where does it say it is going for 1499 CAD?

    sonystyle.ca has it for 1999.99 (which is a rip off)

    btw since 780CTO is made in USA ( i think, since 680 was) there is no duty other than ur GST/PST and any potential brokerage/handling fee

    When you add the 480 to your cart it automatically takes off $500...yeah the only other thing was the whole warranty business, like if I order in the States and then it breaks while its here will sony honor the warranty in Canada
