They are called Honeyberries over here.
I have thought about getting one but never actually done anything about it.

Honeyberry certainly sounds more appealing than Haskap berry.

I ordered four Haskup plants in pots from http://www.haskapcentral.com/. Cost was about $140.00 Canadian. I have an area now prepared for planting.
