I have seen so such about this headset that I finally couldn't resist any longer.
Thursday I ordered one from Sam Ash for $44.99 including shipping. The online ad said it was out of stock but I ordered it anyway as there was no rush. Late Friday I got an e-mail with a FedEx number. Today I got an automated phone call also confirming shipment. So if anyone missed the posted ones here Sam Ash might be worth a try. You can always cancel if an excessive delay is encountered. 73, Bob K2TK On 9/6/2010 5:16 PM, Dave Perry N4QS wrote: > To all, > > The CM500 headset has been sold to W6NIA the first responder.
