It's a great system because you simply add a product to your card, click on the Canadian Pricing button, and boom, you get a price that includes both shipping and customs/duty. It's an "all-in" price with no nasty surprises when you receive the package. I've been checking eCost every few days since the launch, and today they finally had listings for most of the new Zune products. Here's a example of how the eCost system works: the Zune 8 is selling for $179.99 USD (great price!) and to get one into your (likely) cold Canadian hands, it would only cost $189.15 CAD. Is that nice or what?<br /><br /><img border="1" src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com//zt/auto/1195581112.usr1.png" alt="" /><br /><br />Jump over to eCost and check out their <a href="http://search.ecost.com/?q=zune" target="_blank">Zune search results</a>, and you'll find the <a href="http://www.ecost.com/Detail.aspx?edp=38992789" target="_blank">Zune 8 in red</a>, the <a href="http://www.ecost.com/Detail.aspx?edp=38992738" target="_blank">Zune 4 in pink</a>, and most of the other new Zune products.
