Has anyone in the USA ordered the $999 deal from Canada yet? What, if any, are the gotchas associated with ordering internationally aside from warranty changes? As Derek asked, are there any import taxes?

I'm a newb to DSLRs, but after reading up for the last several months, I've decided that I would really like a K-5 as my first choice, with choice 1B being a Nikon D7000. The trouble is my wife has no clue what separates a $600 camera from a $1200 camera, nor the patience to have me explain it to her. If Pentax or Nikon would come down another $100-$200 off their admittedly very good current prices, it would be a much easier sell.
So having said all that, for those of you who have followed this stuff for years, do cameras prices tend to drop signicantly around Black Friday or Christmas? Or is the current $300 discount more than I should hope for already?
I guess I should add: I'd like to stay away from the gray market shops or the refurbs.
