non-bilingual keyboard in Canada

I have been searching for an Acer notebook withOUT a Canadian Bilingual keyboard.

Anyone have an idea how I can purchase one? It seems most USA retailers are not shipping to Canada due to their billing system not being able to change countries for billing verifications. We did contacat one Acer reseller and they stated that the manufacturer prohibits them to sell to people in Canada

Due to restrictions placed upon us by the manufacturer, we are not able to sell this item to you. The manufacturer will not allow us to sell this item where the final destination is outside the United States.

(shipping to a physical US mailing point close to the border) because the computers are not allowed in Canada. Yup..... (unbelievable) .

Anyway = can anyone be of assistance. We have spent over 12 hours in researching and repackaging notebooks.

(Hey Acer - MOST people in Canada do not speak, read or write French

Obviously you have taken the easy way out to market to this country by putting a bilingual keyboard in every store and every online retailer. )

I have asked the ACER USA support staff if I could buy directly from their site and they said "no". When asked where I could find a non-bilingual keyboard they said .. they could not be of assistance.

I have spent over $80 on shipping and return shipping on Acer notebooks that show english only keyboards.

Help! Please.

We use Acer throughout our offices and just because we live in Canada doesnt' mean we speak francais!

Thanks. Alan
