Since $$$ are an issue, as they are with most of us, I bought my units at www.universalmania.com. Right now the 596HD DI is going for $366.88 there, which is $40 or so cheaper than most places are asking. That is where I bought all 3 of my units (596 and 2-898's) and all were at my house 2-3 days after I placed my order.
