I am planning to go next weekend ... Let me understand this a bit more carefully.

I am sure to come back with iPhone - which will be roughly 400 USD. Now I definitely will have to pay Canadian Taxes. If items are this small & can be in use while driving back - why even do I care to declare?

Hi Maharaj

If you bought an IPhone from US , what service provider will you use it with to operate it in Canada ?

GSM provider - Rogers or Fido.
Ofcourse you need to crack the phone first. I mean, Unlock it.

Perhaps you should read about the unfortunate Apple faithful who applied the iPhone 1.1.1 update and have now ended up with a brick.

These are LEGAL users that I am referring to.

Well then, u might need to find a phone that doesnt have that update already... ;)

You might be lucky, but if not so, then u will have to wait a li'l longer to be able to use it here
