    I'm having trouble finding a store that will sell the Wind in Canada. Anyone have some suggestions on where I could find one?

    Staples Business depot if you are in the Greater Toronto Area. I just got one last Friday (Jul 25th). The catch is they sell the Wind with the bilingual keyboards... no big deal for me or my wife who will end up using it most of the time.

    Have you tried Google?

    NCIX.com, Canada Computers, PVC Online, Dynamism.com, take your pick.

    Though the only place I have been able to confirm that has the english one and not the bilingual one is NCIX, which is where I got mine from.

    I was planning to buy the wind from Staples but did not realize the keyboard was bilingual. The French screw everything up. I'm stuck with a bilingual on my HP laptop because of the Frenchies in Quebec.

    I just bought one and its an International keyboard. Not just french. Not that I'm defending the Nations moneysuckers. There are a wack of extra keys!!
    I bought it at staples by the way. $529.

    Just kidding Xavier... yikes
