Amazon crosses the border

Amazon crosses the border
Today's launch of Amazon.ca should make things easier (and cheaper!) for Canadians who want to order books from Amazon. No more border crossing, no more currency exchange, and no more shipping from the U.S. -- products ordered from Amazon.ca will be packaged in Canada and delivered by Canada Post.

Amazon.ca will feature Canadian books, CDs and DVD movies, which is great news for Douglas Coupland, the Hip and, um, Les Boys III.
