There are still several for sale on e-bay, ranging in price from $135 to 
$175 each, including one that claims "New in box! Never not open!"  I 
suppose the show up at ham fests too.  There were quite a few more of them 
around than the 4CX1600's so I expect the supply won't run completely dry 
for a few more years.
