MemberThis is huge news. I just talked with an Anonymous tipster and apparently the NC10 is never to arrive in Canada for sale. He talked with distributers of netbooks in canada and they had gotten notice from Samsung that because Asus has 20% of the market and Acer has the other 80% of the market in netbooks that there afraid to invest in advertising in Canada as they may not sell enough netbooks to overlook the price of marketing in Canada. This is super injustice for people who have been waiting since December in Canada to get their hands on such an amazing netbook that out does all the rest.

Memberno, it will be a pain in the neck to get it replaced if it were ever to be broken, because the warranty is not canadian. The price is way to high as well for canadaland.

MemberYes there are some on ebay, check out the site’s canadian netbook auction page! And buying through this site helps support it too! Everyone’s a winner!

[/quote1235281915]Since I may be about to import an NC20 to the US from the UK, this interests me. If the NC20 should never be formally released in America, will I have no warranty? No idea how this works.

MemberBoth NC10 and NC20 have International warranty if bought from UK. I talked to a USA samsung customer service over the phone. He told me that in order to be able to use the warranty I have to be the original buyer, must have a receipt. If needed, the netbook can be serviced either in UK or in local facility at USA. I don’t know if they have laptop facility in Canada since samsung doesnt sell laptops in canada, at least their canadian site doesn’t show any laptops.
So bottom line is, if you are canadian and you buy it from UK with original receipt, you could use the international warranty either in UK or in USA.
NC10 bought from USA doesn’t have international warranty, at least the USA samsung site doesn’t mention it.

Take a look at this thread, it may be able to help. Though I think you will need to have the French version of Windows installed.January 27, 2011 at 7:38 am #182830Anonymous
