Has anyone seen these cards in stock anywhere?

I'm after the ARC-1231ML in particular but I haven't seen _any_ of the cards with Intel IOP341 processors at all...

Anyone seen them? Anyone running them? :)

More details:

ARC-1231ML/1261ML/1280ML/1280
(12/16/24-port PCIe to SATA ll RAID Adapters)

Nobody has any experience with this controller?

I found it for $779.95 from Interproshop.com: http://www.interproshop.com/commerce/catalog/product.jsp?product_id=13587&czuid=1176745275732
I've never heard of these guys and their site seems a little flaky. Hmm...

Buy.com list it as In Stock but for $852.99:

Any advice from anyone? How much more performance over an Areca ARC-1220 could I expect to gain?

If anyone's seen any cheaper prices, I would definitely be greatful! :)
 
Thanks Order, I'll go send him a PM. :)

Would be nice to hear from some current owners too though. :D
 
I'm sure that the storage section on that forum has at least one owner.
