Actually he's referring to Diamonds special editon M3D2 cards that have a blank plate backing and no cables, software or anything, it's just the card, and will not work on it's own. It's is meant for taking a regular M3D2 to SLI mode. On Diamond's site, the 12 MB Mega is $149, and the 8 MB is $99 , about $50 below the retail price of a regular card. It is offered as an inexpensive way to go to SLI w/o having to repurchase the software (games) etc John, I haven't seen them anywhere else either, I think Diamond is the only place you can get them.
