GTS450 single-slot, where is it?

I read last month that Sparkle was coming out with a single-slot GTS450. Where is it? I haven't found anywhere to purchase it, although I would prefer Newegg.

I need four single-slot cards for my quad-GPU F@H box. Had too many bad experiences with dual-slot cards overheating.

Edit: Is newegg.com down?
 
I don't get why single slot cards have all but disappeared above a certain level.
The HD4850 came as a single slot card, and now cards which use the same or less power, like the GTS450, and the HD5770 don't come all that readily as single slot cards.
(Newegg isn't down, but doesn't seem to have any single slot GTS450s)

Probable noise and cost. My GTS450 runs very cool but with a smaller heatsink they would have had to use a good design copper vs the larger Alum one. That or a faster spinning fan.
