Sadly this won’t be just a bad April 1 joke but a real thing: Sony will really(!) increase the prices in Canada on April 1 exactly. Canadian readers better buy their stuff before this date at Newegg.ca, TheCameraStore, Amazon.ca, eBay.ca or any other store!

Thanks Ori, Sour and all other people who sent this info!
