I waited, to get one for my son, at futureshop here in canada. It was ridiculous. Two hundred people in line, I was #4, and they decide to give out 50 random numbers that they will draw for people who are "allowed" to buy one. Needless to say I'm not one of them. My son is disappointed and I refuse to feed into the ebay frenzy.

A couple weeks ago Best Buy sent me an invite to pre-order so mine is going to be delivered tomorrow. I can't wait!

That's ridiculous! You were #4 and they picked 50 random people? That's terrible!

It's time like these I am glad I am not a gamer....CNN was reporting one system on GreedBay went for $5k?!

no difference b/w US/Cad versions. I did the same thing when the PS2 came out, stood in line all night outside wal-mart to get one for him. This lottery deal, oooooo I could have killed the braniac who thought that one up. it should be first come, first serve! The things you do for your kids!

I went to wait in line but at Target and Circuit City, I missed it by 1 person...but I had my system already pre-ordered at gamestop but it won't be in until after Christmas, I really hope that it does come in quicker.

Also everyone that did get the system came in groups with all of their friends or they bought more then one and all said that they were going to put it up on eBay the second they got home.
