Well, I'm not that far away really. I'd say 2 hour drive.

Most stores you've mentioned ship to Canada. I'd rather buy localy though. Just so I don't have to ship the unit forth and back in case I need it serviced or replaced.
Usually local stores are pretty good with stuff like international orders etc. It's just that there seems to be this odd situation with Access. For months now...
I've e-mailed Access support and hopefully I'll get some answers. If not, I'm ordering the DSI evolver and moving on.
