I think if you buy it from a retailer (BestBuy, Costco, etc) they charge you tax. However, if you buy it from the playstation store, there is no tax.

^^^ i wonder how much that will translate to in canada? $400 slim $500 for neo?

Also Risk of rain is a damn amazing cross platform game on vita and ps4. came out in 2013 but it was on special for $6 on PSN a few days ago. Not sure if that special is still active.

$499 CDN is a fair guess

I'd still be ok with that price considering the exchange rate.
But i'd probably wait until the first price drop before I get it

HDR for even pre-existing PS4s is not the first time Sony has improved functionality and added features through firmware...hats off to them

the lack of UHD Blu-ray is a major blow for me, but I will still pre-order because it's reasonably priced. I have a feeling this will fly off the shelves, not to the levels of Wii but to the point where MSRP will be adjusted like PS4 after a few months. All the 12 years olds are probably salivating at the potential of pwning their buddies at CoD in 4K.

I'm still convinced PS VR is going to be dead on arrival like most Sony accessories and overly ambitious projects.

I'm guessing they'll pull one of their usual tricks that ends up killing cool things like that.

mind. blown.

more PS4P details for the geeks

coles:
SATA 6Gbps at last for SSD swaps
512MB more memory for games
24% more memory bandwidth
double the GPU ROPs clocked slightly higher
existing PS4 games will only run with GPU half-enabled (unless patched)
9 of 13 'Pro-ready' games will use checkerboard upscaling (rendered 50% of 4K)
some will render dynamically between 80-90% of 4K (very interesting)
rare titles will render at FHD then upscale to 4K
less demanding titles like Last of Us Remastered will render fully in 4K
FHD displays will get some downsampling/geometry rendering
'2nd-gen' PSVR titles will get multi-resolution support
