For us, certainly not. The Canadian dollar is terrible.

But for people in the US it's a great deal, a fire sale even. 700+ post thread on gaf about it, people buying to flip the TV and/or Xbone. 12,000 sold the first day. Apparently Best Buy is even substituting various other cheap TVs and Xbone models to pair up because demand is high.

Similar to last year, I'd imagine Microsoft and retailers are going to be doing big discount sales on it into the holiday season to get the sales numbers. It might even push the North American NPD numbers for the month.
