NCIX and CTIStore.com have better prices on the 3TB than Newegg. Newegg is usually out of stock on the 2TB and 3TB versions.

Thanks for the post and the tip about NCIX and CTIStore. I'll keep them in mind!

Black, blue, green, now red. I wonder what color comes next.

The title says they are only taking pre-orders. Doesn't look like they actually have them in stock. I haven't found anyone that has the 3tb in stock anywhere at a reasonable price yet.
