Got mine at Office Depot, next to BestBuy. Brought them an online ad and they pricematched BestBuy even though BB didn't have it in stock.

Do a search on the Office Depot site and then check availability online, then call the store to put it on hold. That's what I did and I've been happily burning ever since!

Good luck!

Thanks for your replies guys. Were you all able to use the $50 Sony rebate for the drive?

Well I am sending it in tomorrow, its valid until the 31st, and some guy said that ya know they are thinking about not redeeming it, they have to basically they probably arent posting them anywhere else or sending them out, so basicaly yes you can use it

I picked up a DRU-500A from the BestBuy online thing. Just put one in a cart and check every day and you may get lucky they'll have one in a store near you. The one I got was probably one that was returned. The box was a bit mangled and I was thinking uh-oh but all the software and the drive were fine. It had the older firmware too which I patched tonite - WHEW !
