Is where I got mine, and while it was in used it was barely used. :)
'Course I paid $155 and picked up a DB9 serial dongle with it.

I also found a working MP2000 at the Goodwill Computer Thrift store
last week. It was working and in relatively good condition, but the
cover latch does stick a bit. It had no battery pack but it did have
the AA cage and a 4MB flash card too. Someone had factory reset the
software, though--and some wag had stuck a couple of those old metal
"Intel Inside" stickers on it.

And I only paid $30 for it. :) Heck, the battery cage is worth that
much. I haven't decided if I'm going to sell it or keep it as backup.

Next time I went back (to get the Netgear MA401 [$20] that cause me
such temporary frustration and a USR 33.6 d/f/v modem [$4]) they had
an MP130 and *seven* eMates. All for $30 each. I still might snag me
an eMate just on general principles...
