I'm very seriously debating having a friend in the US get one for me. Will be curious to see what the Canadian markup is. Though really I'd only end up getting it a week before it comes to Canada anyway...
I'm heading to Utah on the May long weekend. There's an Apple store within 15 minutes of the Salt Lake City airport. I think I'll be be using my 3G iPad within 30 minutes of arrival.

I am in the U.S. this weekend and considering getting an iPad. Although the plans Rogers has released are awful i am hoping they will enable data sharing at some point, so i think ill get a 3G model. But once i bring it to Canada will it work? Will i have to get a micro sim from rogers? if so how would i get one?

Rogers is apparently selling the micro-SIM for the whopping price of twenty cents. I don't know if there is an initial set-up fee like with cell phones. No reason why it won't work. The iPad is an unlocked device and is compatible with the Rogers network. I plan to pick one up next weekend when down in the states.
Good luck.

I got my 3G iPad in the US at launch and am using no problem here in Edmonton. Rogers won't sell the micro-sim until the end of the month. Pricing for it hasn't been announced. The only way you can get it for 20 cents is by pre-ordering the iPad from Apple.

Thanks for that info.
