GH1 available in black only in USA

[Big_Lumpia]

Is any one here in the USA disappointed that the GH1 will be available ONLY in black to us while everywhere else will have a choice in most of the colors. I was looking forward to buying the red one. Bummer.

I know what a bummer. I like the champagne color. Bill Willby is a Canadian dealer and a member here is going to post what colors Canada is getting. Not sure what Canadian pricing is going to be yet.

Here is a link to one of his threads.

I want this camera so much, my palms are starting to itch. I am really curious on how much of a premium we'll be paying here for the other colors. I guess I will have to be patient for a few more weeks.

I would say no premium--unless you decide to buy from another country. If black is it--its it LOL. If you want red and can only get it from Canada--you will pay the Canadian price (but check Bill here in Canada for his prices

Thank you Terry and Diaine, I have yet to hear from Panasonic Canada as to price and colors offered here in Canada. It should be soon and I am hoping I can be both competitive and colorfull. Cheers and happy Mother's Day, Bill

I won't mind black only.... if I could get the US price.... compare 1500$ in the States with 1500€ in Europe equivalent to 2000$us.
I will never accept this kind of difference no matter the explanation.

Bill, please let us know as soon as you have word. Thank you.
