Hi,

I have no more details than anyone else unfortunately, but at least one dealer I've spoken with sells for $275. At least Wouxun has relented on the price, as they were saying that they wouldn't allow it to be sold for less than $325 or something. For a true twin band radio with cross band repeat, I think $275 is pretty darn reasonable, but I don't know about any accessibility. Unfortunately, I haven't got my hands on one, and I don't anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future.
