Wii Mini Hits December 7th- Only in Canada?

Does a mini make a difference?

Nintendo announced that the Wii Mini will be hitting stores in time for the holiday season, but only to our neighbors up north. A Canada release for now, the Wii Mini will book for $100, sports a black and red deco and is a fraction of the size. Compatible with Wii games and controllers, but not with Gamecube accessories.

If it hits your part of the world, would you invest in the mini?
