I'd really like to try one. Maybe when I have the money to spend on it or I can find one locally.

I phoned an equipment supplier here in Kamloops and asked about the new mask. She told me the Respironics sales rep was in on Monday and did not mention anything about newer masks. I'm wondering if it's just not available here in Canada, or, if it has even been released?
I emailed Respironics 2 days ago asking about the mask and have yet to receive a reply?? Has anyone actually seen this "phantom" mask??
Regards, Rick

In Canada, it will not be available from suppliers as soon as it is available in the US from suppliers but you can order it from cpap.com!

Unless their policy has changed, cpap.com WILL ship masks to Canada as well as other countries.
I have bought severals masks from them. You need to send them a copy of your prescription to buy a machine, mask or humidifier. You can upload it on their site, fax it or send it as an email attachment.
I don' think they are allowed to ship Resmed machines out of the US any more.
They charge $17 to ship a mask to me here in Ontario (still costs a lot less than buying from a Canadian supplier unless you have good health insurance that covers cpap stuff). The shipping cost is by weight so I often get some extras that don't weigh much like filters, a second hose, mask parts, hose covers. They ship via the Postal Service and it comes as medical equipment so there is no customs or duty to pay.

Apparently, RESMED will no longer allow US suppliers to ship their products to Canada.

Yes, Resmed products (at least Resmed machines) can no longer be shipped to Canada. I don't know if the policy applies to Resmed masks or not.
Canadians have been here before. When I started cpap only Respironics and Fisher & Paykel machines were avaialbe through Canadian cpap suppliers. A few years ago the Resmeds became available through Canadian supplies. I don't know if that continues to be the case now or not.
This mask is however, a Respironics so there should be no problem with cpap.com shipping it to Canada.

I think when it come time for a new mask I may look into getting one of those ! it would be great to have during allergy season when breathing thru my nose is next to impossible ,I didn't start on cpap till the end of allergy season but the few times I was congested with nasal pillows it was not pleasant ,that may be the FF mask for me!
