Where can i buy a 2.5 500GB laptop hard drive?

I have read some time ago that Hitachi (i think) would be selling one soon. I have check amazon but without luck, can anyone direct me to someone selling it?

Thinking of putting a 500GB drive in my MacBook and i just cant wait.

NowDirect has them really cheap, and OWC has them, too.

The only issue with that drive from OWC is that for Macs, it only fits in the 17" MBP.

OWC does have a DIY kit with the Samsung 500GB drive.
