I really wanted to push the buy.com link, but the price is actually pretty 
expensive:

   http://www.us.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=10241460&loc=14577

At $130.95, that's $30(ish) _more_ than what VST is selling them direct 
for. :)

I know, I couldn't believe it either. I think that VST may have had a 
recent price reduction and buy.com hasn't caught up with it yet.
