Actually it is $800 more in Canada ($5299).

But the thing that really makes me mad is that I ordered a 17" Display to go
with the Powerbook. I would not have done it if this had been available at
the time. And with the stiffer keyboard, I would not be using this sometimes
clunky MacAlly iMedia piece of crap. So all things considered I would have
ended up paying quite a bit less and have gotten much more (newer Airport,
Bluetooth, ATA 100 drive, Firewire 800, nVidia 4 Graphics) - all in one neat
package.

Arrrghhh!
