There's one for auction on E-Bay right now (being sold by a Looper's 
Delight 
poster). You can expect to pay between $700 and $1200 for a 'Plex with the 
footswitch and Maxed out memory.  Theoretically they will be made again.  
Since you are 'new' to this, I would suggest trying a Boomerang (they are 
coming out with an upgraded model really soon!). I own all of the 'big 
three' 
(JamMan, EDP and Boomerang), and for simple loop/overdub playing the 
boomerang is the easiest to use. It is lacking in Delay feedback control 
(it 
is on or off), and doesn't have MIDI sync...also doesn't sound as good as 
the 
EDP, but I think that the upgrade is improving the sonics....
