I'll be dropping by the Danbury, CT today to see if I can get a few of these. I've printed out the web page so the staff at the store will know what I'm asking for. But... I have my doubts! CC has been a huge disappointment for me in many respects.

Check in-store availability using the link I provided before making the trip. Availability of this item varies from store to store.
If you were to only order 1 it shows up as being mailable. If you add anymore to your order over 1 it does not allow for shipping. The BestBuy in our area put Circuit City out of business so the closest one to me is over an hour a way.
I will call them and see what they say.
Edit: The lady I spoke to over the phone said there was only 1 available in the warehouse and that is why I could only purchase one. I asked her if they only had 1 in the warehouse or if they were limiting orders to one per order or one per shipping address. She said neither. She said they only had 1 available in the warehouse. Either these things have sold like hotcakes, someone did a poor job of stocking them or I was fed wrong information :)
Thanks for the heads up on this. I tried to order 6 online (for in-store pickup) and it said that the max order was 5. So, I ordered 5 this morning and picked them up on the way home from work. Helps with backing up all my EX1 footage!
UPDATE...... I dropped by the Danbury, CT store and found two on the shelf, so I bought them. There weren't anymore in stock. :-(
Craftech, not only did I check the link you provided (thanks again, BTW) but I printed out the web page and brought it with me to the store. I now do this often because I've been been to some stores that will deny knowledge of prices on their own web site!
Wasn't there a class action lawsuit against BB for this evil, evil, practice? ;-)
It appears to me that the surface of these TDK discs are printable. The surface is matte white with the TDK logo on a portion of it, but the rest of the surface seems to be usable. Has anyone tried printing on one of these discs?

P.S. I hope this is the beginning of a Blu-Ray media price war!
I ended up getting six at the local Circuit City. There were two on the shelf and four in the warehouse. They rang up at $19.99 each and I mentioned that they were on sale for $4.99. The cashier immediately logged onto the Circuit City web site and saw that they were indeed $4.99. She changed the price, completed the transaction and then congratulated me on such a "great score." I, too, hope this marks the beginning of a massive price drop for Blu-Ray media. Perhaps it could be inversely proportional to the price of gasoline. (I paid $3.92/gallon yesterday here in Albuquerque.)
I checked the Trumbull, CT CC for some of these discs. The web site listed them in stock. Got there.... nope, not a one. :-(
I just tried printing on a disc. It does not look good at all. It's all beaded up and runny.
I have an Epson R1800. Oh well, life sux... then they won't let you die.
