There's an eagle brand one from eagletech.com or from Newegg (both have it).
Eagletech.com had a free after rebate one that was OOS so they substitued another.
I don't know if it's back in stock.
The substitute was $6 or $7 after rebate for those late to the game.
Newegg has the same one that eagletech offered as a substitute with a different rebate to make it free after rebate + $6 shipping.
The rebates are from Eagle Co..
Search for the threads here or on other forums or search the retailers' sites.
