I also just ordered the Sandisk 16Gb compact flash card from J&R .

And to answer my earlier question re customs charges for Canadians ordering from the US (I called Canada Customs):

1. There is no duty on computer equipment.
2. You have to pay GST +/- PST (depending on where you live).
3. The shipping fee from J&R is 26$ US, which includes the brokerage fees (so this is quite reasonable).

If you're from Canada, and ordering from J&R, and want to save an extra 10$ using google checkout - well google checkout won't work (google says J&R doesn't ship to Canada, which is not true).
