I know St00pid is waitin' on his loot, how about the rest of you Canadians? Seems that stuff (including iPods) is finally shipping out to the States and UK, and I am too lazy to check everyone's details to see where you are all from....so... if you are Canadian and you got your stuff, post here!

I got my Canon SD630 in August. They actually ordered from Bestbuy for me.

I don't think they're shipping ANYTHING to Canada. I haven't actually heard of a Canadian receiving his product in a while now.

well i have an announcement considering im canadian

i just received an e-mail from canada post with tracking information for a package.

im assuming its my ipod nano from freepay since i havent bought anything online in a while

hope thats some good news. my status still says STV just to let you know.

this is what part of the email says

Here are the details of your shipment
Item Number XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Weight 0.54 KG
Dimensions Length 16.0 Width 15.0 Height 13.0 CM
Delivery Options
Do Not Safe Drop
Signature Required

do those dimensions sound like an ipod nano box in some kind of packaging?

I'm in Quebec, still waiting on a 30GB iPod offer I completed in APRIL and got approved for in JULY.

Still in processing. My latest complaint got this response

Um...an "exponential increase"? That means it's just going to grow and grow and grow. Eventually, with "exponential" growth, there would be more orders for each product than there are people on the planet. Maybe if FreePay was better at math they would realize that with all the folks they have put on hold, or cancelled after 90 days, they can afford to SEND OUR SHIT. Hmmm.... And do they mean an increase in their orders or their shipping? We certainly aren't glad to be informed that there is a growth in orders unless there is a similar (and GREATER) growth in the shipping of said orders. I like how open to interpretation this is. "We are now shipping more products on a weekly basis" - this doesn't necessarily mean they are shipping more products, just that more of their shipping occurs weekly than, say, monthly. Bah.

Sincerely, The We Hate FreePay Team.

Better at math? I think their arithmetic is bang-on. An "exponential" multiplication of zero is [i6be836a01b]still[/i6be836a01b] zero. wink

Unless it's 0^0. That's 1 D

Technically it depends on how large a value of 0 you mean.

Well, see it depends. Little brain-boggling excercise

1/9 = 0.11111.....
2/9 = 0.22222.....

etc

9/9 = 0.99999.... or = 1? There is no number between 0.99999.... and 1, but are they discrete?

So...for those computer geeks out there, it's really a question of

int send_out_ipods = 0.99999999......
vs
double send_out_ipods = 0.99999999.........

If it's the first, we get nada.

Hm...which gets me wondering again. What if there is exponential growth and the exponent != 0, but it is < 1?

just went STV today (or late yesterday).. for ipods.

if more pple going STV that means they might be bulk buying and bulk sending them?

I think these forums Karma points actually work; shortly after you gave them to me, I went STV on my 30GB iPod. shock

All kidding aside, maybe we are seeing a Canadian shipment going out soon. Maybe we can have a new Canadian "Post your schwag" thread before Halloween.

Here's hoping!

Guess what! Remember I said I'm waiting on my Ipods, Ipod Nanos, and 360 a few posts ago. Well all of them went STV, except Ipod Nanos....it went SHIPPED! Also got an email noticfication from Canada Post, so it must be the NEW NANOS! Tracking says I receive them tomorrow! I'm so happy D D D

Hopefully that means poor St00pid will get his too. (

Yea, I'm hoping for you to St00pid and all you Canadians out there. You know whats weird though? Ipod Nanos was the last site that I completed from the other two and it's the first to ship.
