Here is a link for one of the vendors carrying the meter in the states:

+1 !! Please please get this in the stores! Otherwise you'll start seeing some massive group orders for these online soon!

I am making an order with Hanna as I type this. We will do a small group discount if we get enough people here to commit. I will post CDN price as soon as I have it.

Okay, we have started a group buy thread in our sponsor forum, go ahead and add yourself to the list there.... They are already pretty cheap but we will see what we can do with the price...

Only problem is the resolution and accuracy. From what I understand the goal in saltwater is to aim for a phosphate level below 0.05ppm so using this device doesn't really work for people in the right range, only those outside of it. However probably still better than most test kits so for $40, not too bad.
