Agree. So means those in Australia paid a slight premium to enjoy the product first. We, on the other hand, have to wait a few days, a week, 2 weeks, nobody knows. Hopefully, tomorrow with the start of the IT Show 2006, there'll be some light at the end of the tunnel.

not updated with the price for 30D yet, but u can see how much higher the RRP is...eg. 1DMKIIN at $8499
and 20D at $2969
from there, u all should be able to estimate the street price if RRP$2499 is true.

I think marketing/Sales managers/directors in Singapore think that Singaporeans are suckers - earn lots of money no where to spend, so just charge them high high----
until they realized that consumers simply just take the risk and buy it from some other countries, eg Japan where consumers will tend to believe/think that those are definitely made in Japan => more reliable so why need warranty......Canon QC can't be so bad especially if "made in Japan" and sold in Japan........so the marketing/sales managers/directors becomes sucker themselve when they can't exceed targets.

Most importantly is that they control their QC well.
Agreed... If the final QC if good, I don't really care where is it made since Canon service makes up for it.
