Thanks to everyone for the quick and helpful
responses.  Seems there are a few options for buying
them ready-made, plus a few very simple home 'recipes'
that I think even I could handle:

* Whole Foods has Natural Feast or Belo brands in the
freezer section, considered pretty good, but not
wonderful.
* Wild Oats sells GF pie crusts, too, but no brand
name was offered.
* Kaili's Kitchen (www.wheatlessinseattle.com) makes
pie crusts, but a pre-made crust might be too fragile
to ship well.
* Dietary Specialties (www.dietspec.com) has crusts
and ready made pies.  There's a minimum ($75.00?) on
shipping frozen items, 2-day Air and dry ice expense,
but you may easily find other offerings to add to the
order.
* In Massachusetts ready made pies and pie crusts are
available at Bread and Circus, Wild Harvest and local
health food stores.  They are pricy compared to making
one but very convenient.

Simplest alternatives to making your own:
* Buy some gluten-free corn flakes (such as Nature's
Path), put the corn flakes in a zip-loc bag and crush
them into smaller pieces (using a rolling pin).  Then
add some melted butter and mash this mixture into a
pie plate. The end result is almost like a graham
cracker crust. Then make whatever pie filling you
want, bake it or chill it, whichever method the pie
filling requires. It makes an acceptable pie crust
without too much effort.
* Use crushed gluten free cookies (such as Midel's
arrowroot animal crackers or pecan cookies) and
softened butter.  Crush them either by
putting in a zip lock and using a rolling pin, or put
in a food processor.  Stir in about 1/2 cup of
softened butter.  Press into a pie pan and
bake at about 350 degrees for about 6 to 10 minutes
before adding the filling.
* Put almonds in the blender to make "crumbs" then add
butter and a little sugar.  Pat it into a pie pan to
form a crust.  It doesn't hold together like a real
pie crust, but it works okay.

Take care,
Craig
