I got mine from Computer Express (Sudbury MA, 800-228-7449) a month ago, and I
lucked out - they still had the 2.5x version in stock, so I got it for 30% *
$149 = $105 + shipping.  The upgrade will be free since I bought it after the
cut-off date.  I don't know if they carry the other Paradigm things; my catalog
is pre-version 2.6, but they have MIDI interfaces and some other preipherals,
so they might carry the controllers. 

Computer Express seems to be a poorly known resource.  Their prices aren't
always as good as MacConnection and the other biggies, and they don't ship
overnight, but they carry a lot of the more obscure things such as Lost
Treasures of Infocom, at least 7 different Logos, and scads of educational
software.  Prices are about 30% off list for everything.  Oh yes, they carry
pc, amiga and apple II stuff as well as mac.  Standard disclaimer: I'm only a
happy customer.
