It is almost impossible to get a 650 in Sydney. I got my red one at Sony Central last month, then last week we went to Borders to get a black one for my daughter and they had plenty. This week when we wanted to buy one for my husband for Christmas they had sold out and so had every other Borders and Sony store. We managed to track one down at a Myer department store, but it was the last one they had and I had to get them to hold it for me. The Sony website shows them but you can't click on the page to buy one and it doesn't say when they will be back in stock. Everyone I have rung has said they won't have any until February 2011. The Borders website says back in stock February 2011. It seems there is a world wide shortage of the 650.

We feel very fortunate to have three of them in our household.
