If you want a hard case www.innopocket.com will ship direct from Hong Kong, otherwise Piel Frama will send leather cases direct, my personal favourites :) www.pielframa.com

For batteries look for the Lion battery ad on the front page, they sent me a standard Dell including shipping to the UK for less than 1/2 the cost of ordering it over here.

You might be able to pick up some screen protectors from a photography shop, I got some whilst i was waiting for the ones i had ordered, not the greatest but they did the job.

my only other thought is try somewhere like www.expansys.com they might have a Canadian store or possibly a trader on Ebay.

Hope this helps

Here are a couple for you:

http://www.handheldcanada.com/handheld/index_en.jsp

http://www.canadacomputers.com/handheld.html

And last but not least http://softpocket.ca . This one is new and probally the best. They are in TO but no online buying yet. Have traded emails with them good guys. Discount for Aximsite members too!! Make sure you mention that so the site gets acknowledged.

I also look at the main pda sites (you can find links all over this site) and then search futershop, ect for the stuff I want. Have also emailed the suppliers and asked where to buy in Canada.

Here is the info for the Aximsite discount. BTW, although they do not have online ordering, they do do mail orders if you can't get down there.

Ebay is another option for Canadians, but you still have to watch out for customs, taxes, etc.

I am going to be ordering some stuff from them. Could you let me know if the in store inventory is much different from the website?
