I got the 115s from Fry's earlier this year (one day sale in May).  The
rebates took some harrassing though (and were $40 each I think).

The 110s and 115s show up on Ebay all the time for $40-50 (which is a little
high for my cheap self for a 4th tuner).

There's a 120 out there too, but it doesn't do QAM (which is how I get my
HD), so I avoid them.  I have no idea how they work in myth either.
