I just bought mine from REI - they're clearanced. When I called on
Friday night there were two left: one in Salt Lake City and one in
Denver. I got the Denver one (and I live in MN - they're shipping it
to me). It might be worth calling, because with shipping, brand new
from a known reputable dealer, it cost $237. I just called my local
REI, and they did a search through their system, and then their
customer support people called the Denver store and took care of all
the details for me. It's listed as the Nike Triax Elite HRM, with no
mention on the computer of the SDM, but the store checked the box, and
it is the right version (and that would be one thing to be careful if
you're buying off of eBay - from what I could tell last week when I was
looking nobody's making much of a distinction between the HRM only
version and the HRM/SDM version). Also check out Jomashop
<http://www.jomashop.com/nike-sm0019-001.html> - they're selling it for
$289.

I hope this helps,
Austin
