iTrip not available in Canada

Just found out that the CRTC (Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission) has not yet approved the iTrip for 3G iPods for sale or use in Canada. The only place to get one is in the U.S. and to "illegally" smuggle it across the border.

Like we haven't waited long enough.

Ah well, I've been waiting since August, what's another couple months. Soon I hope.

You're right. Only the 3G iTrips are unavailable.

I just spoke to them - they have 97 on order - and about 70 backordered (I think I'm #70 )

Might as well get on the bandwagon......

With tax + shipping it was $66 cad. to Calgary.
